I have no problems, NOW.

I'm 5'5" weigh 180 lbs. and that tells you I have short legs and short arms.

I tailored my Speedy to my physique.

Custom made seat.

Norman Hyde forward controls that brought them back 4 inches.

America bars on Speedmaster risers. that stopped me from stretching forwards.

It has been the perfect solution to my discomfort when riding long distances, although I generally stop for a break every hour to ease any aching muscles.

Although the improvements did come at a cost, they were well worth it to enable me to cruise long distances on my favourite bike.


FrankW Ex Speedmaster rider, went to the Dark Side now riding an America.
