cool bikes!
Hubby has one. It's a wee bit too tall for me as a novice (I'm 5' 2.5") and, to me, it feels heavier than the 1100. I thinks it's because all the weight is in the top of it, whereas the 1100 had a low center and felt more balanced. Eventually, once I'm a more experienced rider, I could probably handle it, but for now I'll stick with "Edna" (named for my tiny little great aunt, she was small but feisty and always lots of fun lol).
