I fear I've wasted everyone's time.
I had a go on a Triumph Tiger, KTM Adventure 990 and a Moto Guzzi Stelvio.
I didn't like any of them. :( I found them too upright and there wasn't not enough fairing for comfy motorway work in the cold. I didn't mind having 90-100bhp though, it's plenty for the sort of gentle riding I do. Basically I doubt I'd use the off-roadiness enough to justify the compromises.
So I'm thinking of a small sport tourer instead.
Current fave is the BMW F 800 GT / ST, mainly because belt drive is cool.
