Like Mags said I love mine, I also have a DL1000 Vstrom, but the Versys is my favorite....I've had a couple of them, got rid of them for something else, and came back to the Versys every time... Great ergo's decent power, great handling, many options available for storage, windshields, ergo's, etc.... I've taken mine on many trips including a few to the Gap, and down the BRP..IMO a perfect all around bike...cruising at 80 on the interstate is no problem..I've owned a ton of bikes, but the Versys has knocked my gen1 FZ1, and my RD350's off of my top spot......
