That's the good part.
The seating position over a longer ride just kills my back. Not sure that there's much I can do to resolve this. I was looking at some videos about forward controls, but not sure that stretching my legs out farther would help. Wind was problematic. Although compared to the GW, anything would be lesser. I've been thinking about a small windscreen. Likely would help some. Vibrations were more than expected. At 70+, it's turning a lot of RPMs and the vibrations had my hands tingling by the time I got to work. Overall, I think this bike is best suited as a back-road cruiser than anything for longer distances. I had hoped to do an Iron Butt ride on it, but at this point, not sure I could endure it.
On the plus side, the bike felt good at speed. It held a line well and was smooth on the road. While the motor was turning a lot of RPMs, it didn't feel our sound over-worked. Just the vibes.
I do have to figure out a solution to the back problems though or the bike can't stay. I've got back problems to begin with (L4-L5-S1), so I'm SURE that's a large part of the problem.
Who's got some input for me?
With all the battles you had,...it's nice to hear you got some Riding Time on it.
