Re: [ST] ST vs VFR

[Erik Miner <Axeis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd STRONGLY suggest you ride them both.. I mean this is the ST list 
and we are biased!  If you don't care about things like factory hard 
bags, heated grips, a longer warranty, and most likely MUCH lower 
insurance costs.. well I almost bought a VFR really nice bike but it 
didn't have the available options for long distance and real world 
riding I needed.
