"Getting to know you."

[Rocky_imp]

I do not yet have 500 miles on my new CB1100 standard. Yet, each ride reveals to me additional bonding with this remarkable bike...I did some slab riding on the interstate yesterday and by sitting on a sheepskin and sitting quite forward on the seat, I did not experience any discomfort with my legs due to positioning on the pegs. (Every five miles or so I'd straighten my legs and move my feet well forward for a few seconds. Also, I did not have any irritation on my behind due to cushioning of the sheepskin. I have even gotten increasingly able to cope with riding without a windshield. (FYI I am 5'9" tall, have 29 inch inseam and weight 175).

(Nothing new here, I realize. I am just an old coot (1936 model) reliving my youth to the extent I can.)

Best to all.

Bob, you and I share a lot in common; same size and age. I'll be 78 in two weeks.
I've had my CB since the spring of 2014 and more or less went through the same experience as you, but I haven't had any need to stretch my legs.
Compared to my other bikes, I found the CB a little heavy at first, but soon got used to it and now hardly notice it at all. I rarely ride on the slab and have yet to install a screen.
Too many slow and curvy coastal roads around here to enjoy to really need a screen.
Ride on; be safe, and above all, enjoy
