I must say as a post 50 rider, I appreciate smoothness. My rubber mounted Sportster still put my hands to sleep so I sold it. I also need at least Progressive shocks of some type, if not Ohlins. Overall I think most people are happy with the 1100. When ridden at a slower pace it does fine. All about the torque. But certainly worth having steering head bearings checked before winter storage as well as wheel balancing.
