I have the same dilemma. I am waiting until I can road test the 950. I tested a sky hook 1200 a while back and didn't like the low speed handling, and it felt fragile and dare I say poorer build quality compared to my Triumph, but the power and the sky hook suspension were incredible. I am hoping the 950 will be better at low speeds with the 19 inch from wheel. It all depends what you want from the bike. I am happier with lower tech and an 113 BHP is plenty for my tourer, as I have as sports bike as well. I would try to test both if you can.
