i think for me weight is more of an issue since its biggest role is a commuter with some touring thrown in, I have done a few NY to GA/NC trips and wasnt too bad, I was hurtin at the end but after 14 hrs in the saddle its expected. I also have to fight NYC traffic and bad roads so something a bit more nimble is important. If aprilia redid the futura and improved the electrics and maybe added heated grips it would be perfect for my needs.
