I'm looking to upgrade the old reflex. Just wanted an opinion from a previous owner/rider. I'm sure I'll take a hit on economy, but it's the comfort level I need to get the best of. Pretty sure they are both reliable but which one is the most solid / comfortable ride for longer cruise?
Most of my rides are inner state speeds of 70mph and weekends I take the wife along, looking to buy used 2008-12 with low miles. Seen several in the 4K range. Speak to me from experience ?

Hey maddog,
I'm in the same boat as you are. I'm also looking at stepping up in CC's for taking my wife on rides.
I'm seeking out the SilverWing myself. My friend rides a beautiful Bergy, a great machine.
His complaint is removing the tupperware to do maintenance, so his goes into the shop for some of the things I do for my Honda.
I also found within a couple of hundred miles, a couple of SW's that are 2012 leftovers, for really good prices.
Since I try to give the finger to any type of financing I (try to) take a pile of cash, for the best price.
Good luck in your search man.
