I still love my 10R
I have been riding the hell out of my C14, and when I want to go long distance or just want to take my time it is the weapon of choice, And it will tear up a twisty road like few sports bikes can. BUT when you really need to experience motorcycling, nothing like whacking the throttle on a 10R and understanding why it is such a good bike. The weather has given it a break, although still very cool, the roads are starting to get cleared of sand and gravel, so I took the 10 for a putt. I just love being able to wheelie on demand, especially out of a corner. Something wonderful about how raw the thing is. The lightness and ease of turning is indescribable, I will never be too old to have a sport bike.

The 12R is a great bike and a great mile burner. The only bad thing about it, is the lack of storage, so that is why I got a C14. Great motor, handling, and storage. Not to mention that ii is a Kwak.
