I am lucky enough to have several bikes, including an ex-racer track R1 plus a lovely XJR1300. And I get more smiles per mile from my well sorted XT660X then I do from any of the others!!! You just need to recalibrate your brain to the lower speeds and then the smile just grows and grows!! I did 350km this weekend around Tuscany and did I take the big tourer???? Na, just the XT.
