This post has woo'd me towards the 883 model, now.. so, when I go to the dealership tomorrow.. don't be surprised if I post that I came home with a 883R.. =D.. but most likely not.. because I want to get my M License first.. and in order to do that, I'll need the safety class.
I am 5'10' 185 with back problems. The solo seat tore my back up on my 1200c but when I put the two seater on, which has more cushion, it fixed that problem. Even though there is no one else riding with me right now I am keeping the double up.
Yeah, that's what's been edging me on which to get.. the 883 or 1200.. I want something that can keep me on the freeway at 75 or so.. because each time I go riding, my boys are about 30 miles away.
