If you were able to combine that list of bikes into one machine it would be the Ulysses. But it might handle better and ride more comfortably and get better fuel mileage.

Congrats.

"but the thought of loosing my licence has made me see the light,"
I too bought a Uly for that reason, partially. It don't work. I start out on my daily commute with the intention of riding the speed limit and have plenty of time to get there but by about halfway I'm rippin up the twisties with an insane grin under my helmet. I'm about one point away from a bicycle. Good luck.

Congrats - hope the rain stops tomorrow when you pick it up! I'm a Londoner too, but waiting till Nov 1st for delivery of 08 Uly. Enjoy the last of the nice weather on your new bike!
