I enjoyed riding my Toxy with all the touring options. Did not enjoy the general maturity level of drivers, who were either in the process of running one over, or spitting on one. Was just too dangerous to ride.

Hard to restart on hills, very difficult to push when going over long non-ride features like some border bridges (local shop was a style nazi about underseat searing which I did not find practical for touring because of the difficulty pushing.) Not easy to pack have no idea how one would take on plane. Seat was comfortable in a sense, but there was a general feeling of sliding down it. When it rains the position is very poor for avoiding that. Also the position is aerodynamic, which means the air slips over one efficiently. Odly, I found that seemed to mean that wind chill was worse on cold days. I would still like to try a Rans some day, but overall I found upright bikes were preferable for me.
