Just got back from the dealer.

Winter this year will feel a lot longer than usual.

How tall are you ? ~1,80 cm, 6"??

 

[Mr. Bones]

1,85m and it felt just right.

 

[gerry]

Get your hands off this delicious Swiss cheese fondue, my friend!

 

[gerry]

that wouldn't change my body height....
and of cause: it's the winter sweater that makes me look that fat
and btw: I live in Switzerland, but I'm german

Seems like you're seated very comfortably. The forward lean looks like a good one, good angle and all.

You probably look taller in your picture because you've pulled your head to turn toward the camera. Otherwise, you would have had a bit more forward lean, I think.

Mr. bones, how is the peg placement compared to the R 1200 R? About the same, or further back?

 

[Mr. Bones]

I never sat on a R1200R, so I can't tell you.

 

[gerry]

I would say they are same. Of there's a difference, then a very little one
