This is all Joe's fault ;) I wanted a white ST, but he sold it, then he got a vSTrom, so I ended up with a white Vstrom.....:eek::

Chuck, I got the new Glee. Had to wait a week or so in order to get a white one. I test rode one three weeks ago, and I was sold.

Wow that is awsome. I love white. Did the V-strom ever get over it's vibration issues? I'd love to buy one from a friend of mine, but his vibrates something aweful. But maybe I'm just use to the ST.

Very few bikes will be as smooth as the ST.. maybe the Wng but the last time I went from the Wing-to-ST the ST felt smoother..

The VStrom comes in a couple different flavors - 1000cc and 650cc and the current 650 is a different motor (from the Gladius). It does vibrate more than the ST but not something I'd consider annoying at all.

I may have to stick to my ST and my assorted dirt bikes for any adventure stuff I get to do anyway at least for a while. Thanks for the information.

Congrats on the Wee or Glee as they call them now! You will love this bike. I finally rode my ST today because it has been neglected for the last 6 weeks or so and thought it might needed a blow and get those valves cleaned off. It's a diferent ride than the ST but is a pretty good do it all bike. I'm about o order a set of aluminum panniers for mine. Enjoy!
