For you motorcycle gurus out there:
What would be a good sports touring/commuter motorcycle with the following features:
-in the 600cc-750cc displacement range
-comfortable riding position
-fairly decent windscreen
-not too big & bulky- small enough to push out of the way easily
-in the @$8000 price range
Basically, something I could drive to town on a regular basis, take on the occasional 4 hour trip (with luggage), and just enjoy while riding normally.
Note, I'm not a fan of cruisers, Harley or pseudo-harleys.
