check boxes:
-cheap, reliable, low maintenance
-commuter/beach/canyons/250-400 mile day trips around SoCal
-spirted performance, when you want it. None of this "running out of steam" feeling that you find on an ADV twin
-planned mods: top case, touring windscreen, highway pegs on crash bars, dual headlight mod, quad lock, charger, heated jacket liner hookup. Optional: soft cases if overnight camping (rare). Unlikely: track day.
anything else I need to be schooled on?
