I'd like to finally see a comparison between the SMC and SM/R.

I felt the intent was clearly defined in the article.

I think the SM would probably suit my needs better, as I'll almost never go offroad...that and the SMC looks tall as hell, 'cause I'm just a little guy. I must be one of a very few that likes the looks of the SMR best.

I'm 5'8" but only have a 28" inseam. That makes most dual sports and supermotos a bit too tall to be practical. I have no problem one-legging it, but constantly one-legging it with a knee over the seat is a little too much. The 1" difference in seat height between the two is a dramatic difference for me. There's also a lower seat option available for the SM. The SMC doesn't look like it has much seat foam to work with.
