Re: Love my GZ.. but when time to move on... What to choose?
Your next bike will be determined by what you want to do in the future. Do you want to do some longer rides/trips? New or used? Budget concerns will likely determine the final decision. How big do you want to go? Brand loyalty or just pick what turns you on? Japanese only is probably the best option as they are reasonably priced and normally make excellent bikes. Do you want a relatively maintenance free bike??? Do some research on any promising bike by lurking on websites and getting a general idea of problems, traits, comfort and wrenching concerns. Can you do normal servicing yourself??? Where is your nearest dealer??
As for the H-D concepts I would have reservations. Will they be any less weight than the 883 Iron? Will they be any cheaper than the competition or more or less comparable in price? Being another starter bike like 883 Sportster(but smaller) is usually thought of, will it retain any value after 2 or 3 years?
