You are still a baby in real terms. I am 65 been riding since I was 15 still riding still doing 2 jobs not ready to hang up my helmet yet. Been wondering whether to move up to an RC8 seen some good deals at 8k but think I would keep the Storm.
I was born with nothing and I still have most of it left.

Cheers for that Pete, I'm sure once your under way you'll forget all about the discomfort and your backside will mould itself nicely into the seat,... it' anything after the second mile of your journey you've to worry about :D .......Don't take any notice "I'm only jealous"
