A bit less torque (~6 ft-lbs at 9200-RPM) than the S1000XR for 2/3-rds the cost based on MSRP. And, most likely, you'll be able to buy leftovers at a discount in a year.
Downsides, no centrestand and heated grips are an option.
Color-matched bags are a ~$650 option, but MSRP is still under $14,000.
The S1000XR is not competition for this bike. The suspension and brakes alone put it in a completely different class.
Perhaps. But you're paying over $7K more for something the typical rider may never notice.
I knocked, but the door was open.......
