Very nice ride Quack. I like the Strom as well and considered it when I was shopping for a bike. The looks didn't really grab me but the comfort and feel when seated on the bike did. It just has such natural riding position. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to ride one prior to buying my M50.
I still love the M, but my curiosity is still there.
Thanks for the feedback. It's nice having reports from someone who has a knowledge of both bikes. Enjoy your new toy, and keep us updated.
