Pretty machine isn't it. Can't get over how small they are when I see them. Though having sat on one I know it's a similar size to the gen 1. Just smaller bodywork or something.

Ha I'd rather be on my tippy toes at the lights than look like I'm riding a monkey bike. High seat is only a problem at a standstill. It's a blessing when cornering as you'll be very unlikely to run out of ground clearance. Think if I kept myself tight to the bike then my bar ends would be first to hit the ground.

i hear that, people give up and get a big mouting climber thing or a "cafe" type bike, i mean there nice and all but they are what they are and thats usually a 99% of the time car drivers bike.

there's nothing better than a sports bike.

cant agree more about the ground clearence, im just under 6ft and i can flat foot one foot at the lights i hear the newer shape is slightly higher as well but with lower pegs cant wait to swing me leg over give it a sit.
