Touring: CB1100 vs. F800GT

[Stichill_imp]

You look perfect on the CB1100 However, you need a different color riding suit. This one just washes you out.

You should see me shopping for helmets with that perfectly round head of mine!

I was thinking more along the lines of the 1200 VFR,....

I think there may be deals on the Norge, check out the WildGuzzi forum, they have a Classifieds area too. With so many good bikes to choose from, once you find one that fits you I think you'll be set. Was at the GoAZ dealer in Scottsdale this afternoon, oiy! So many nice bikes!

They look awesome, in fact my CBR250R has similar "layered look" styling that I find appealing. However I have never seen one in a US dealer showroom with manual shift. They all seem to have DCT pushbutton automatics. I know that manual versions were made because I've seen them in Germany. I guess one of the main raps on the 1200 is big thirst + small tank = limited range...and high price.

The VFR800 is often called the first sport touring bike or "the gentleman's sportbike."
