I cant begin to say how much I love this bike. Different bikes for different folks. For me the riding position is perfect. I actually feel much better on the pegs with my heels down than I did with floorboards. The weight and handling is freaking awesome! Rode 2.5 hours last night and another 1.5 before work today. LOVE this bike. Still have a few more touches but yeah she turned out pretty too.
