Big improvement over older V-Stroms. I love the new Triumph Tiger 800 street model. I'm also considering used BMW's... They are very nice bikes. I hear Honda's coming out with a DCT 600 next year. Very tempting.

Anyone here commute on their motorcycle? If so, what are you riding? I'm doing about 50 miles/day round trip with 50/50 highway/city driving.

I used to commute to work on a 2003 Custom Softail Duece until I got hit by a drunk driver (And lost my left leg). And I've been riding for 25 years. I still ride, but not to work no more. It sucks because it is a beautiful ride to work (Past Cal Ripken & Ray Lewis' mansions).
