Regarding the Rebel; again, I don't want to see what happens after a year of running it at 70+mph for some 15,000k miles. Honda engineering and all, I've my doubts the little engine would like being pushed to the max that often.

The Ducati was a joke.
Regarding the Rebel, I mentioned that for the sake of cheapness. It is much cheaper than the Scrambler but built by Honda. I've heard that they aren't bad bikes. As an alternative, the Honda Shadow is modestly priced but has a 750cc engine. However, if you have an affinity toward English construction and don't have a problem coughing up a couple thousand dollars more then I would say the Triumph is a good bike for the money. Triumphs are cool, too.
