Coming from my 06 Connie this thing feels like an electric motor.
I might wait on a peg lowering kit like I had on the Connie.

I'm 6'4" and the only problem I have is the stock seat pushes me too far forward. I feel like I need to be sitting back 2 or 3 more inches.

Houston, east side. I'll PM ya.
I had an 06 Connie (Kawasaki Concours). OMG, what did they do to my butter-smooth Z1 engine? No sweet spot, just vibes from hell. And a noisy engine. For a water cooled motor, man! My CBX was waay quieter-an air-cooled 6 cylinder! Beautiful bike tho. In the forums they had a section called Anonymous Connie Droppers, Never understood till it happened to me. When that 6-7 gallons of fuel wants to go-you couldn't stop it. Thank goodness my Lexus was close enuf to catch it on the way down <G>.
