I wouldn't change the bars. I don't tour. But my Zuk is all but painfully uncomfortable to me after about 20 minutes. The RC seemed like a longer reach but more leg room compared to mine.

I think I'd be sore on the RC too. My back is what hurts and the reach is long. I also have terrible knees and ankles....which is what kills me on my bike.

Yeah, but you are insane.

Good price there Marko... could almost buy 2 of 'em for a 1125.

I honestly expected to see 8500 on that bike. I was shocked at 6400. I can almost afford that. Almost.

Didn't ride it. Didn't even take my gear with me.

Wouldn't trade Pinkus. They probly wouldn't take a bike that old. And I could get a good price in the private market.

With the sale of Pinkus Jones I'd be looking at about 4G's on the bike. I can swing that right now...but the wife won't allow it. She insists I pay off bills first. I say F bills.
