I am in the process of considering between the MST and R1150GS. At the moment the MST is ahead - just.

I also considered :

1) Kawasaki Z1000 and Z750
2) Yamaha Fazer 1000
3) Triumph Tiger
4) Triumph Speed Triple
5) Honda Hornet CB900
6) Yahama XJR1300

Bear in mind that I use my bike primarily for commuting, I should be looking at bikes like

1) Honda CB500
2) Yamaha Fazer600
3) Yahama Diversion
4) BMW 650GS

et al

but I'm looking for something interesting that'll be a worthy successor to my Honda Firestorm. I can trade performance for comfort, but I don't want to lose on handling. I really wanted to like the Tiger and Fazer 1000, but my legs are too short. So its a showdown between the GS and MST.

I'll be making the decision very soon. Good luck with yours.


Ever considered one of the latest big bore scooters? Very popular in Europe, they are the ideal commuter bike.
