That price sounds about right.  I got all that except the
ThrottleMeister (I use a Throttle Rocker instead), plus an alarm, tall
screen and pannier liners for just over $14K as I recall.

I agree with your analysis.  Shortly after buying my ST my wife asked me
if I thought I'd chosen the right bike, or if I was to do it again given
an essentially unlimited budget would I pick something else.  I answered
that the ST was the right bike for me.

Periodically I ask myself the same question as I see more bikes and read
more about them.  I still believe I've made the right choice.  I have no
doubts.
