Amen to the above. My handle, XHD, refers to me being finished with H-D's after 12 years on 'em. My 03TBA satisfies all my motorcycling needs including sound (like Old Roadie, I installed Sceptres which even H-D folks say are loud). As to comfort, I recently finished a round trip to Watkins Glen in upstate NY with no problems of comfort. And since I can't afford a Ducati GT1000, I'll remain very happy with my America. Have fun.
