For me, price was a huge factor. If you can afford a full wing, then I agree with above. I'd look at the Victory and BMW. I didn't like how dorky I felt getting on and off the full wing and while we ride two up often, I couldn't see riding solo with that trunk. I'm least impressed with the suspension on the B and plan to do some upgrades in the near future. I think the travel is really short on it. For the price you can get B's for, they're hard to beat. I went to the dealer fully expecting to ride out on a Kawi Voyager or a used 15 HD RK. Left on my 2nd B.
