You're spot on Tig. I'm a fat lazy bastard and I need to work out but at the same time, I have a bad knee and even worse foot problems (gout is one thing that I have as well as working on concrete for the last 15 years). I simply don't have the desire to do much more than sit on the couch when I come home in the evenings as I need to put my hurting ass feet up for some comfort.

Cool! I honestly wasn't trying to be an asshole (for once!). Well, of course it's up to you but I still think you might end up regretting it if you give it up... Hey, something that helped me was isometrics. I drive around in a truck for 6 out of 8 hours so I feel your pain. While you're laying on the couch flex your ab muscles. Um there are different types of movements you're supposed to do. You can google it, there's a TON of stuff on it. |

OK, so I searched for these bars and this is what I get: http://www.starcycle-usa.com/servlet/Detail?no=23964 http://www.indysuperbike.com/custome...oductid=115540 Seems like a lot of money to spend without any guarantee that it will help me. ![]() I did see a cool set of grips on their site that add in a wrist relief for the throttle. May be something else to look into for me.

Wanker!!!!
![]() I'll be there next weekend to pic her up. The 929 does have an aggressive seating position. The guy I rode with for awhile couldnt go for long. Pm me your price. |

Have you thought about a Honda 919? Or possibly the FZ1? Or even a Hayabusa or some hyperbikes like a ZX12, ZX14, CBR1100.
My CBR F3 is still one of the most comfortable bikes I have ever ridden and I daily commute that bad boy with laptop and a backpack full of books. I know you'll miss the power of the 929 though.

I've not thought about any other bikes, honestly. I've had this Maruader in the back of my mind since before I got the 929, but I don't think that I would be happy with one, or anything like it. You're correct.........I'd be totaly lost without having this power under my ass. It's like taking a power shit, only you're not shitting and you don't have to really clean up when you are done.
