Yes, me too - bought a red one in September 2011 and have been using it more and more as my own transport, rather than just the weekend riding and touring I bought it for.
Although - I did go and look at a used Gold Wing a couple of days ago (I had a GL1000 years ago); but there are logistical problems for me storing and manoeuvering a thing that big, there were aspects of the deal I didn't like and, when you looked closely under the panels, the bike wasn't quite as good as it first seemed. What swung the decision though is that the NT/Deauville is just such great bike. I might not be able to resist the new retro CB1100F quite so easily tough.
By the way, your spell-checker keeps trying to change 'Deauville' to 'Vaudeville' - so it's not just the UK bike press that don't take it seriously.
