    My VFR with Helibars is just about right for me, it would be perfect with maybe one more inch further back. Sorry, no way would Helibars on this Aprilia come remotely close enough for me to be comfy - stock they are several inches lower than the seat!
    I'm sure it would be a great bike for someone, just not me.

    This thing has to sound awesome if looks count for anything. Nice bike!

    I was just trying to help!!!!! I understand though. For me when choosing a bike, it goes in this order...

    Comfort
    looks
    performance

    I will not buy a bike if it's ugly as sin, but performs like a bat outta hell. Comfort is paramount. Performance can always be increased, it just costs time and $$$, often times though, there's not too much than can be done when it comes to looks.

    What a sound!

    Not only does it look good but my gosh does it sound sweet! Not that I would ever say it sounds better than my 98 VFR especially as I am posting on a VFR website, but if I wasn't I would say that is the best sounding bike I have ever heard.

    Comfort is first!

    Not that it would ever be needed, but if I had to come up with an excuse for not buying a bike like that, comfort would be the reason. Having had three vertibrae fused together in my neck I guess I should be happy to even be alive, let alone riding. There is nothing I can think of better than my VFR for comfort and yet still sporty enough to have some fun with. I had an older Ducati Sport that I could not ride for more than a few miles without extreme pain in my neck but the VFR eat milles and still be comfortable.
