Maybe you should branch out and get a Multistrada. I know of one, a few light scratches and one not so carful owner :D
My new ride is a bit of a Howler and I love to make her Squeal

Too many wheelies? ;)

Had one of those, didn't like the way front footrest mount went around outside of exhaust after it hit a bump in road going round a corner, dug in and spat me and girlfriend at time off the bike. Good bikes though.
