Any other converted Versys 1000/1100 riders?

Of all the bikes I've owned over many years, I logged the most miles on my 1998 C10. When I sold it last year, it had around 80,000 on it. I also logged two IBA certified SS1000's on it. At the time I also owned a 2008 Goldwing and a 2016 Versys 1000. While I loved my Connie, she started to be left behind. Over 25 years of technology and lack of room for three bikes, I had to let her go. The Goldwing for me is a misfit. I usually only ride it when the wife wants to go. It's ok. Just not a wow factor for me. At 67 years young, I enjoy the more upright position on the Versys. It's better almost everywhere. I do miss the shaft drive and better rain protection. It was just time.
