For those with a large bag or Givi type luggage, is it a pain getting on? I suppose one gets used to it, just seems initially one would be hitting it some.
I get the same issue with the tall backrest on my CB750. You have to bend your knee a bit more when getting on and off so that your foot passes in front. Not a huge deal. You get used to it.
My problem is that i occasionally forget which bike I'm riding. The CB11 just has a rack with a low grab bar, so I can swing my leg over it. If I try that when dismounting the CB750 my leg gets caught on the backrest and I have to hope no one is watching.
