The TL is the same way. As well the TL has a
*very* agressive riding position. I have Heli
bars on mine and it is still pretty agressive.
All depends on why you have the bike, yeah, the
TL in stock form is not going to win much, but it
is a hellava fun bike to ride! There is just
something about a 90 deg V-twin with m4 slip ons!

I test rode a Superchicken, actually not a bad
bike, a whole lot closer to a modern day naken
bike, well at least as far as ergos. Definately
more comfortable. But I could not find one in
good shape for what I was willing to pay for a
toy bike.
As we have all said, pick the bike that is
perfect for you.
