I was introduced to the M109R there and it swayed my salivation for a while, so much so the wife went out of her way to get me an M109R T-Shirt at the time.
In the end, I decided that I've waited too long to get into this hobby to buy so much plastic, with such little aftermarket dressings as is the case with the M109R. Also, After waiting this long, I wanted something that looked and felt like an honest to goodness Motorcycle and not a Star-Wars shuttle. So the choice gravitated back to Meanstreak, Classic or Nomad. I ended up with my fully dressed 1600 Classic and I am happy as a "Pig in Mud" <LOL>. The Meanie gets my attention equally, although I've never ridden one. I would love to ride the M109R though, Just for the heck of it.
From NJ to Trinidad & Tobago? Man that's a change of pace

LOL. That's definitely one way to go!

Haven't ridden either. Sat on both at last years show. If given the choice, I'd pick the Meanie as well. Aesthetically, it just looks sharper.
