Ill have to agree with comfort being the most important factor in picking a bike.

All the bikes you guys are talking about are pretty much "fast" and "powerful"...their power and how they perform are so similarily close to one another, that you really cant see those differences on the street.

Although the best thing to do would be to test ride all the bikes that you are interested in to see which one you feel most comfortable on, doing that is practically impossible. Sucks, but thats the way it goes.

Thats why Im on my 4th bike in the last 2 years...just trial and error until you find something you like.

Your riding style will also determine which bike you feel more comforable on.
