Got a 2005 (pre electronic suspension), and it's not out of place showing its exhaust pipe to a super sports bike that has an average rider as pilot.
Bought it a year ago - just over $12K.
Run new Pilot Road 4's on the wheels - very solid and surprisingly sticky for a touring type tyre.
Full luggage and a very happy wife. Can take her 'beauty shop', whenever we go away for a weekend with our local Ulysses Cub.
