Bonneville America Forums Forums Off Topic Discussion Forums Lounge I think they have ruined the "newer" America's

What gives, I recently went to sit on some new Triumph's ask I'm looking to get an America or Speedmaster or possibly a T-100 or Scrambler (I know I'm all over the place) @ anyway I sat on a 2014 America and the floorboards seem at least 2 inches closer and possibly higher than previous models, and they have dropped the seat height an inch, also the bars have way too much pull back now, heck the old bars on the America's were perfect! The newer bars are at least 2-3 inches closer now. I'm 5'10" and I feel cramped now whereas on the older models the bike fit me perfect. Not to mention now the rear fender is plastic! I love the new red bike but can these issues be easily fixed to the old style bikes or maybe I'm better off buying a 2008 speedy I have an eye on, I'm not bashing I just think they are pushing these bikes more to beginners/women
