New event at the Olympics- watch Maxtog spring down the track in his leotard, to mount his C14!

Not IMO... I prefer the body lines of the gen 1 better.  :)

When I was looking , my dealer only had a used 08 with a set of tall risers  :P did not care for it , I also heard about the heat Issues , not something you want is south florida , so I went to Orlando to get what I really wanted.

Zero hops.  Maybe I am more flexible than typical, or maybe it is because I have short legs, or maybe it is from all those years of martial arts when I was younger... but I have no problem going straight over the seat with my leg while facing the bike.

How else would we mount it?  :)
I have a big-ass trunk, and I don't want to scratch the tops of the sidebags with my boots!  I will start making "Bruce Lee" noises from now on as I mount up...

Most people seem to want to face forward and try to swing their leg behind and over.  That will scratch the bags.

Indeed... that will help!

More like a scuff than a scratch. Multible scuffs, actually.
