Default Riding position for Anti-APES (for those who requested).

I rode to and from work today and I must say, It's a totally different feel. It handled like a champ! Anyway, In my other thread a few people were curious how the riding position looked... Here it is.

After one of my 300 - 400 mile lunch rides, I'd need someone to call for an ambulance. But then I'm an old fart.

Would be perfect if you had some passenger pegs to put your feet on, I spend 90% of my highway riding that way and can ride all day.

I like the looks, just don't think I could handle the position. BUT the girl taking the pic sure does look good!

Looks great, and to each his own, but the only thing that position looks good for is sleeping.

I'm not even an old fart and I would still need medical attention.
