Excellant retort. It is so sad when some folks seem to think a real bike has to be big. Any bike no matter what the size is a real bike and delivers the real experience of riding. The big bike mind set is mostly a North American thing while the rest of the world is happy with any size bike that can haul your buns down the road.
I was in a real quandry prior to getting my Vstrom 650. 1000 or 650 ? 1000 or 650 ????????? Glad I bought the 650. It is as real as they get. If Suzuki ever decides to build a Vstrom 500 I will be first in line for a test ride. I doubt I would miss the extra engine size and performance. I don't use all the bike I have now.
