Howdy,
I am an American expat living in Denmark. Came here 23 years ago as a scientist and decided to stay after I retired. Been through a few Yamahas in the past 20 years--FJR 1300, Stryker, Tracer 900GT and just recently got the Super Ten (two weeks ago). I think this is the keeper. I liked all the others, however---the FJR was a bit too heavy and definitely too fast (old body, stupid kid brain); the Stryker was more laid back, but hard to load lots of luggage; tracer was lighter, plenty fast, but still did not feel great for longer trips. The super ten seems to be the right combination of weight, power, luggage capacity and comfort. Looking forward to some long trips.
Cheers,
Dana
