I wasn't really recommending the TRX850, it'll be a bit slow compared to your old Fut.

I'd actually be tempted by a Triumph Sprint ST 1050, but you said no to full fairing...
So I guess that only leaves a Super Duke. :mrgreen:
Some of the beemers are nice, depending on your budget - R1150R or R1200R

The Tiger 1050 would be a possibility as that has no fairing and the engine's very nice. Lots of them about as well.
KTM 1190ADV - sold
KTM 790ADV - sold
KTM 790 Duke - sold
Honda CB300R - sold
Honda NC750X DCT - sold
Yamaha MT-07 Y-AMT - very modern
1981 Suzuki TS185ER - very much not modern 🙄

I have to say ... in the year or so that I’ve known the fut, it was well behaved and served you well sir. As Roy has already said, I had fun following it and enjoyed trying to keep up at times!!

I like Brian’s approach ... replace it quickly, move on and the pain will fade ... fast!

Easier said than done though!

Good luck in the hunt!
