OK, this is an old show. I've ridden or owned them all. The BMW is the best handling of them all. If you are owning in this bracket, handling is everything. If you want performance, get a Hayabusa.

Weird that they talk about the r1150rt as a 'slight increase' as if it was more powerful than an st1100. As if displacement is the only indicator of performance

Slagging the FJR off as being too heavy, when its 25kg lighter, and 25bhp more powerful than the ST1300? They've got no idea.

I would have to go with the Beamer. I like the Hondas and the FJR is tempting, but for the size the Beamer is a all arounder. Although you couldn't tear me away from my '03 GW.

That was the worst haggling I've ever seen. Get your bike cleaned up, trawl a few dealers, get your budget set in stone and be prepared to walk away, if your really keen let the dealer stew for a few weeks, if it doesn't sell call him back and mention the deal still stands if they want a sale and don't give in. I did and got £275 off and he'd already reduced it. I got offered £800 difference between dealers in part ex too.

Interesting, though would kinda prefer more useful comparative info, and less focus on the 'presenters', which seems to be sort of a Brit tradition. And regardless the bike's performance, funny how some riders are always still a "Honda man" (or whatever)... kinda like the old OS 'loyalty' wars between Windows and Mac!
