I love my vara too :woohoo: and after seeing it the other day (I don't keep it at home) I don't wanna be too hasty in downsizing. If I can carry on handling the weight then it'd make sense to keep it as I've had it 2 years nearly, know it well, done a fair bit of mechanicking on it and its farkled up pretty much how I want it.
Watch this space.
Re the Suzuki DL, I'm sure they're a great bike but I've never really liked the look of em.

Ta 650!!!!!!, well ta 600 are more realiable (build in japan), but they getting old now (again for some people -like me, no problem with bike age at all).
