I've got 1400 miles since I bought it a month ago, lol. Apart from regular old recreational rides, I keep trying to come up with excuses to go to the store or other errands so I can ride more. I had to buy some plumbing supplies at menards today, which included a 6' length of pipe, and I had my wife meet with with the car so I didn't have to figure out how to strap it to the bike...but I still rode the bike, lol.

This bike was absolutely a better fit for me than the KLR would have been, for basically the same money, and I really appreciate your input while I was shopping...it definitely steered me in the right direction.

Saw quite a few GS bikes in Rome, mostly 1200 boxers

Those Guzzis are cool. I can't afford one but I still really want to try a V85tt. That horizontal, air-cooled V-twin and shaft drive just seems like it would yield a very unique riding experience.

Forgot ablut the Guzzis, saw numerous of those as well. Definitely doesn't sound like the typical V-Twin
