My other bike

[Grumpy Goat]

Nice "other bike" to the RS. Completely different mission profile (naked roadster) and would be my approach if I were to get a second bike, and for much the same reason you mentioned (nimbleness). That you would keep it as the only bike if forced to make a choice, suggests that you are more a shorter distance rider and could give up long distance riding. For me it would be the other way around ... I'd have to have a bike that was capable of riding long distances at speed comfortably, and would take the comparative reduction in directional stability as a trade off.

I like the matched fork spring covers, seat and hand grips on the R Nine T ... works for that bike. Tank bag fits in perfectly too.

What is that mounted on the right side of the seat (to balance off the left mounted mufflers)? Some sort of gas can?
