So this yesterday we did a Craigslist thing and went looking... 1st stop an 883 hugger... pearl , windshield, bags...just what she wanted ...until she sat on it and realized just how top heavy it was... could see the disappointment in her eyes...2nd stop 1200c ...all stock except lowered shocks... owner was a first timer (just as short as my wife)...she sat on it an what a difference... lower center of gravity made it much easier to handle... BIG smile on her face...so she decided she wants it.... 2007 black <1200 miles...just a nice sporty.... will upload pics when we get it home....thanks all for your comments.
