I joined this forum a good while back when looking at the 2013 CB1100. At that time I decided, rightly I think, that it was too heavy, and bought a Guzzi V711 Special.
The V7 is a really good bike. Time moves on though, and I am now much more comfortable with the idea of a 250kg bike than I was then, and I still think the CB1100 is a great looking bike.
So...I am now considering a new EX or a new RS. Are there any contributors who have experience of the RS and how it rides - there isn't a great deal of comparison beyond a couple of articles in Visordown etc. but what there is would tell me that the EX might be a better handling bike, but the RS has the looks (if you like the brasher, sportier look).
I found some really good advice on this forum last time round, and any advice would be appreciated.
