Yup, I’ve read that and the mass of seat complaints. It’s going to scrape sooner than mid pegs or rear sets no doubt, much the same as the side stand lever drags on an America, I just think it’s a given based upon the design. It’s not really a cruiser, either, with the short wheelbase and lower neck angle...it’s at least 4° tighter than the America. The staff told me a lot of the design inspiration came from the Speed Twin and that only has a 55” wheelbase and I think you have to take that into account; so smaller by design and not so friendly to riders over 6 feet is my thought.


A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
