Ha ha, enjoy the Stone. But as someone who had a Jackal side-by-side with a rubbermount 1200R, I wouldn't get rid of the Roadster yet.

I have a lot of really good memories of the Jackal.

It's got a wheelbase a tad longer than the Roadster and despite similar weights it felt a little lighter or maybe more nimble. I'm guessing steering geometry played the biggest part in that

Yes the motor is downright wonderful and the brakes are decent (better with duals).

There's a lot to like about that Stone.
