My first ride home with the ST was a bit of a long one, Windber PA to
Columbus OH.  I thought I wanted to raise the bars too at first, but some
wise soul on this liST suggested I ride it a couple of weeks before doing
so to see if I'd adapt to the stock positions, and I did.  So I just
thought I'd pass that on to you in hopes it helps by giving your body a
chance to settle in to the ST's ergos before ya' changed 'em.

Good luck, and congrats on a fine ride!
