Hello all,Alan from Seattle WA here.I'm thinking about selling my DL1000 and my GS850 sidecar rig and buying a new X.I'm 50 years old,I have been riding for about 45 years and I ride everyday year round.I use my DL for commuting everyday and the round trip is about 40 miles of which 60% is freeway and 40% is local/stop and go.I get around 37 mpg from the DL and would hope to better that by atleast 35-50% with a X.I also do a lot of touring and some light ( dirt roads ) offroad.We are heading up to Deadhorse in June and plan on doing a lot more long distance touring.I want a NEW bike with a warrenty and at $6,999 it REALLY sounds good.I'm hoping that the X doesn't have any or few problems from the factory.My DL had fueling issues and clutch basket issues AND charging issues from the factory and the owners don't seem to care and buy them anyway so Suzuki never saw a need to fix them.
Is the X for me ??
