I now work for a powersports dealer and we have a used ST. Also, we have a Concours 14 and a couple FJRs. I rode the FJR and C14 back to back around the parking lot today and they both felt similar at slow speeds where you are going to feel the weight of these bikes the most. I will have to jump on the ST and see how well it hides it's weight compared to the other two. It's been almost 9 years since I was aboard an ST, so I'm a bit foggy, but I don't recall it feeling heavier than my FJR which I had at the time. I suspect the extra 100 lbs is only noticed when you are pushing the bike around in the garage or trying to back it up sitting on the bike.
