Or a Triumph. Suddenly the CB300R just hit my radar. While available overseas it will now be imported here. I'm thinking going that route (or a Rally) instead of another big bike. Toss the small bike in the truck then ride once I get to my destination. Riding home from the last rally from San Ysidro New Mexico to Phoenix I froze between Grants and Gallup, the roasted south of Flag. The Griso is not the ideal touring bike.I love the looks of the CB300R. I think it would be an absolute blast to ride in the twisties.

Guess I'm getting soft....
I have a 2015 CB300F and just got to ride a new CB300R. Appearance aside, the major things I noticed were the lighter weight, and vibration felt through the seat and not the bars, opposite of my bike. Plus the seat was lower and harder, but that's any easy fix.
