That's what I figure, seems like a real nice machine. I'm somewhat old school and can't really get comfortable on my cruiser style bike. I'd rather sit straight up, feet down. I was looking at goldwing's when I came across the concours, goldwing's are nice but I think the concours fit my style better, time will tell.If that's your riding style you would probably need these items. Stock setup is forward lean and knees up a little higher than is comfortable.
