Life is too short - If you enjoy NJS, ride NJS.
The reaction I typically get when I tell people what I ride is usually something like "Man, really? Huh. (bummed face, except for one LBS employee who then showed me his SS Ti Mariachi)" haha.
EDIT: Seriously though, if this is something you're spending time thinking about you're probably not riding enough. Ride whatever makes you happy.
