Re: ST ergonomics

[Neil Halbert <halbert@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Tom,

I have the same specs and the fairing is not a problem. Usually at speed
you slide back some anyway because you may be leaning forward onto the
tank. In the showroom there is a tendency to notice these things more
since your static and are check out the fit more closely, sitting closer
to the tank than you normal would. If your ball of the foot is on the
peg, your knees don't come close. Now the ST1100 I had tried a few years
ago was another story.

Jump in the waters fine. Take it for a spin and you will find you are
concentrating on a lot of other more important things like how you are
going to get that grin to come off.
