Sadly not, Al. I suppose the F900R is quite nice (and it clearly has its fans) but I'm really not keen on the looks. 'Over designed' is one description I would use - not as much as the latest MVs (which are a visual dog's dinner imho) admittedly.

I know what you mean and all the naked bikes are very similar, can’t say I like the look of my R from the front, at lest it’s ok when I’m on it! Have you considered the Guzzi V85 or the V100, they are a bit different & gets good reviews, a lot of guys on the GS site have the 85TT, I test rode one when I was changing my GS, I quite liked it but thought I might miss the extra power two up so went for the R.
