Me too, the more I ride this scooter the more I like and appreciate it. I like riding my K1100LT but when it comes to going on errands and fighting town traffic the scooter wins hands down. The scooter with it's top box on can carry as much as the LT with it's top box and saddlebags and does it more conveniently. Not to mention the scooter is thinner and easier to park. I'll admit the LT is smoother on the highway when you're cruising at 75mph due mostly to it's larger wheels and somewhat softer suspension in the front fork, and I like to go through the gears in the twisties, but with it's 72,000 miles and twenty years of age it's more of a vintage machine than the 2013 GT. The old LT is in very good condition but I trust the newer machine's reliability more. The only thing I don't like as much on the scooter is the noise. The engine's exhaust is LOUD, I don't know if it's a resonance in the CAT or just vibrations in the engine but the racket isn't coming from the exhaust pipe. I'm not the only one who's ridden it and mentioned the noise level. Oddly, if you lean forward and put your head down low the noise seems to disappear. Eventually I'll find the source and do something about it.
