i rode a tiger and they're nice. i got cramps in my hips with the riding position. i like to have options for my feet to move forward.
lots of wind so a full helmet with a visor is a must.
i'm 6 foot with 30" inseam and i could manage but could see where at a long light it could get dicey.
the gold ones are very cool.

Hey Ezcue, I was going to Loctite the shifter nuts but it's pretty hard to get a wrench on them. Did you hold back the ends? They move around when trying to loosen things up.

Matt, I put a small pair of vise grips on the center shaft, broke loose both nuts, spun them down a couple threads and put a drop of L-tite directly on the shaft. While hold ing the shaft with the visey grips, I ran everything back up snug.

You put the v grips right on the threads?

Nope, on the center of the threaded rod...the un threaded part.
