One more thing. Do those Night Train risers have a pullback? If so do you know how many inches it is?

Yeah, that was me. The pictures aren't the best quality, as they were taken with a phone camera, but it gives you an idea. Unfortunately, I don't think I have any more pictures as I traded in the Superglide on a Night Train. There are two in there taken from the right side so it gives you an idea. If I can find any more, I'll try and get them up.

No bend in these risers. They were 6" straight risers.

Actually now that I look at them again, I can see that I will want some pullback risers. Those bars look a bit to forward and high for me. Did you have to reach?

Also: How does the Night Train compare with the Superglide? I love the looks of the Train but that skinny front tire worries me. lol.... I'm also curious about the handling differences and the 88B motor vs the 88A.
