So I swung by a Harley dealer on the way home yesterday, and I'm pretty well convinced that's the route I'm going to go (albeit, probably not from dealer pricing). Getting up close to them and sitting on a few to check out the ergonomics changed some of my opinions (or more accurately, misconceptions).

Leaning hard toward Harley (Sportster or a high-ish mileage Softail), mostly because of consolidated aftermarket support (in this case, a luggage rack) - kind of curious if I'm missing anything in the metric cruiser (V-Star, Shadow, Vulcan, et al) aftermarket parts market. I've never been one to follow trends (heck, I usually try to avoid them), but the availability of parts, accessories, etc spanning is pretty hard to beat.
