| You're right, Paul, you have to look at the overall picture. Not everyone is comfortable risking a lot of cash out on the road/track (although their life or health, that's different!).
I'm really lucky, I have my 750Sport for everyday (I don't own a car), and my 999 for the right day/right mood. But you can have fun on any bike that is inherently sound - the most fun I've ever had on a bike was on my old XJ900F. The ST2 is well capable and if it is "invisible" in the City, well so much the better! |
