Only had 2 of your above list...
FJR...was only on loan for about 6 weeks, but I found it too heavy for general town work etc but when I took on the open road it was well up for it and pulled on twisties no probs what so ever.
R1200gs... Was my favourite bike I've ever had
can't praise it high enough. Done everything I asked of it, although looked heavy, was very easy to ride anywhere and that boxer engine just went on and on and on. Could keep up with all those so called sports bikes on the bends and would just sit there cruising all day long, what more could you want. Can load hundreds of stuff onto it and it won't be fazed. if two guys can take it 1/2 way round the world with very few mishaps even after dropping them all over the place, what more would you want? Only thing I'd say is get a comfier seat, not that original is bad, just to 'sit' more into the bike if you know what I mean.
