Amen! I still hear the not big enough from time to time.... after 130,000 miles, 48 states and one province, I just laugh....When I bought my 2016 CB500X new in 2019, the salesman was so happy to get it out the door that the price was $6000 all in. He said everyone went by it and said "not big enough". I sent him an email after riding it from CA to VA and he was floored. I find not listening to the pundits in the cycle magazines and making my own decision is best.

BTW, as a point of clarification, the "not big enough" was referring to my motorcycle... get yer minds out of the gutter!
