Don't forget you have to take the magazine test's with a pinch(handful sometimes) of salt-they have to be mindful of where their advertising comes from.
EG: when one of the mags(can't remember which one) did a group test of all the sports tourers 4 years ago when the ST4S had just come out they loved it. They had a technique of giving the bikes scores out of ten for all the different parts, handling, comfort, engine, etc etc. Anyway when you added up the scores the Ducati won(by quite a distance)................but funnily enough in their overall rating at the end the VFR was the best bike-go figure.
