I would tend to disagree. The sound system on my E-Glide sounds just fine at anything under 70.

Yep, the geezer has by far the best sound system of any bike. A friend has a K1200Lt and it sounds like crap.

Anything under 70 was fine on the glide. The GT doesn't have a sound system and it won't go any slower than 70 anyway.

I was very excited to read this review. It started off great. Cool windsheild, better heat dispersion, cool electronics, big motor. However, I keep looking for the most obvious accessory a touring bike needs - cruise control - and there is no mention! Not even a "gee I'm surprised they missed this again" comment. How can Kawasaki, Honda and Yamaha miss a detail like this in their Sport Touring bikes?
