Here here. Many have said the clubmans are tough of the back or uncomfortable but I agree with Warwick I'm not feeling that. I think the stance is fine, and very reminiscent of riding my old Katana. I ride 100mi. a day commuting to work and think it's a comfortable ride. I was going to just skip the hate but feel now that I have to address it because if I don't than I become complicit in it. It's like this: I get the schism between Stockers vs. Modifiers, just as I understand the friction between Harley riders and CrochRocket riders. The deal is though people have different styles. I don't sit here and pass judgement on the Stockers, no name calling or broad stroke labels. You want to ride a shining stock Honda more power to ya, I think they look great and if that gets you where you want to go great. I want a slightly different level of performance, a quicker steering response, quicker braking etc. I've got 78 CB750F and one reason I got it was for the triple disc, I know it's barely still a SOHC. I want to personalize it, make it my own, a different paint scheme etc. Some one said that these bikes are like land and he was right; some land we set aside and conserve and then on others we cultivate and build. There's room for both I think, seriously they are just machines. Some of us want to upgrade, from points, or drums, this doesn't make us all hipsters (whatever the #$%* that is), or followers of a trend,we actually have clue. And asking for advice doesn't mean you have to pull out a soap box. Most of my time here has been great with gracious, helpful, knowledge members helping someone new to CB's but I'm not "new". So there ya go just felt I needed to add my voice to the fray not to escalate the debate but to stake my place.
Respect!
