Nice motorcycle ... a lot like a CB1100 with fairing and bags and a bit more power... Ok a lot more power....but I don't use much of it lol. Wish it were lower in the saddle, as I am tippy toed at a stop, but I am getting by so far. Might end up getting some lowering links for it, but would hate to do that. Messes with suspension, handling and clearance. Could also get an inch taken out of the seat, but then the knee bend might be excessive.
Stinks being a munchkin.

Yeah I wouldn’t mess with the suspension in that manor, could definitely negatively affect handling.
