I appreciate the kind comment. Thank you. The LRS was certainly more comfortable for longer rides. This bike feels quicker and handles better. But that’s to be expected with a lighter smaller bike. The torque does not drop off in a noticeable way on this bike in the higher gears/rpms. If I could get another LRS I certainly still would for cruising and longer trips. Ride safe.
Thank you for the kind words I really appreciate it. Nothing fancy. A riding vest from Iron and Resin and just my carhartt work pants and red wing boots. Ride safe.
Thank you! I’m 5’11 and I can flat foot it with some bend in the knee. The seat does push you forward into the tank a bit unless you scoot back and tuck for high speeds. I got a new seat that is much better. I also have adjustable risers on the handlebars so I can ride in a much more upright position than the stock clip ons. I’m happy with it. I can ride for a good hour and a half without needing to stretch but it’s definitely on the sporty side of comfort vs a cruiser
This video is helping me get through the winter blues until I can ride again...which is within a month LOL Thanks for the ride along!
I appreciate the kind comment. It’s been raining quite a bit here lately so I’m looking forward as well. Ride safe.
Loved the exhaust note! And a beautiful road... Subscribed 😁
I appreciate the kind words. Thank you.
Nice vid like always Gavin. Very cool bike with its own thing. But wondering how it compares to your previous LRS?

Thanks!
it's a good show to reach that speed smoothly without using a windshield
Loved the video!! What gear are you using? Need to get myself into the retro aesthetic !

Nice ride! How tall are you and how do you feel on the bike, ergo wise? Is it comfortable or does it get hard, even for a cafe racer?
