Very nice looking SG Keith.

With that rigid on such a small backtire I think I would be afraid of what the bike might do (upset)on a hard bump say at freeway speeds or a pothole at intermediate speeds and what punishment your back will be taking?

Since you have the reach problem have you thought about a airbag lift type supension?

I was just talking to some buds last night about that. I may have to look into it. So far I haven't had a problem & have been on some rough roads. The Sporty was rigid & it was a lot harder ride than this one.
