Advantages: Comfort, Torque

Disadvantages: Rear Shock

XL1000 Varadero is THE most enjoyable motorcycle I've had the pleasure to shoehorn my ample backside into for years. Its not a pocket rocket nor a full blown monster tourer. It is a bike I can ride for 8 hours+ a day without having to pre book a chiropractor before hand. The finish is Honda perfect and after 12,000 miles it still polishes up like new. Top speed is about 125mph but its real strength is low down torque, it can pull better than Russle Crow in the Newcastle Big Market. Two up with full luggage does take its toll with the bike squatting a little because of its under sprung rear chassis. All in all, I'll have another without hesitation.
