Too sporty. I do about 90 miles a day with over half of that on motorways or 60mph A roads.
The Tracer GT has a nice upright seating position but wind protection is shit.
Tempted by the RT because of the wind protect / comfort. The GS is also great but it feels like it will just be another more expensive version of the Tracer.
I garaged the Tracer in late October last year and was about to start commuting on it again this month. Anything that keeps me on the bike for another month or two would be grreat.

I think the weight will be a ball ache in the city. The ktm smt was so good for everything, wind protection with a Palmer screen was great. Maybe try a different (Palmer) screen? I did a 180 mile round commute on the ktm for a while. Did 1,000km days no issues, and at autobahn speeds.
The blackbird was a total ball ache in the city manoeuvring around.

Well the RT is a very tempting bike. It has quite a bit of extra weight in luxury items for a commute. They can be a fight parking when you are backing into small spaces on weird cambers.

No love for the rs then? Apparently the new one is pretty good.
