HAHA.....sure why not? When I'm home, I'm everybody's "go to" guy. I almost feel a little guilty when I'm on the phone with my wife. Instead of hearing " You have to cut the grass", I hear "I have to cut the grass today". That feeling goes away when I remember that for 42 yrs, I've cut the *&^%^&* grass!

 

Morning, Larry!

 

Funny how a 'badge of pride' can be formed into a millstone around one's neck....

Mornin, Larry.

 

Grass is on my list today too ... With the rain we've been getting it's growing like crazy ... Al, can I have your wife's phone number?

 

Howdy Mick, Greg ... I'm still waiting for Al's response :>)

 

Lemme help....not just NO, HELL NO.

 

Morning, Mick, Greg, Larry, Al, Denny, and Jeff!

Yeah, it somehow turned into a masturbation thread. Go figure.

And you read correctly Mick. It was a surprise to me too. The pegs are farther forward on the RT (than most BMWs) just like on my vintage bike. I thought for sure they would be set back a bit like many newer bikes. Waaaay farther forward than my FJ09 pegs. The distance between the seat and pegs is almost identical as well, as is the reach to the bars. The RT bars are a tad higher as the former owner added risers to the RT which works out great.

It's interestiing especially when you see the bikes side by side. The RT dwarfs the R75/5.

 

The distance between the seat and pegs is almost identical as well, as is the reach to the bars ... So HD isn't the only one that doesn't "improve" its products?

Mornin' Bob

 

In this case thank God. I was certain that, like most manufacturers, they had shrunk the distance between the seat and the pegs which crosses them off my list.

 

headed home, Woods. Ultrasound and appt. with vascular surgeon afterward . Not looking forward to that discussion since I forget all about the Abdominal Aorta Aneurysm ...see ya later
