Where are you located Brianlp?

Considering he mentioned the words "freeway" and "splitting" probably means he's in California.

OP, if youre not on Barf, there are a few moto couriers who'll give you their honest opinion. Here's a post from awhile back that I remember reading. Its by 07Chuck, and its the 4th post. http://bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3217941

I am out of sacramento, Ca. Fairly mellow smallish downtown. Own the business, its called DaredevilCourier and I mostly do paper work , legal docs etc. Use a car for bigger stuff . I have been looking at some of the older Monsters also. 800's 620's ...  Looks like they go for around 3- $4000. used.  I wonder if a 800 would be to much for lots of stop and go.

the 800's would be fine, they're still wet clutches with the right amount of power. The dry clutches will murder you day in day out.
