It is a joy to ride and with the Flat 6 it is vibration free which makes the long distance rides much more enjoyable.

Thanks for the welcome.
The size is perfect for me, anything smaller looks like I am sitting on a toy. I am 6'5" tall and 290 lbs, former football player. Good thing too, last Saturday in Lake George for Americade a custom chopper parked so close to me I couldn't bring the bike upright even to get the weight off of the kickstand w/o hitting the chopper. Sooooo held the bike while my tiny 4'11" wife forced the kickstand back and then leaned wayyyy over to the left and worked the throttle and clutch until I was clear. A trooper directing traffic a few feet away yelled over that if I wasn't a big guy I wouldn't have been able to pull that off. Boy was I PO.
