I have no idea why anyone makes a sloped seat. They seem to be universally despised.

You mean Niken GT? Why....what do they plan on doing to it? Bigger engine I hope.If i were to change S10.. and if S10 were no more, id wait for new Nike GT.. EUro5
Niken eng is euro4, Euro is inevitable. I heard from my friend who is working in Yam.You mean Niken GT? Why....what do they plan on doing to it? Bigger engine I hope.
Wonder if they will stay with triple or move up to 4 cylinders?Niken eng is euro4, Euro is inevitable. I heard from my friend who is working in Yam.
I complaint to him that if niken were having bigger engine like 1300cc i'd get it, he response no but something bigger like around 1000cc +- is coming for 2021 Euro5.
So i'd wait to see.
The tracer i sat on fit annoyingly well.The 2015 I sat on had me on the balls of my feet with my 30" inseam, exactly where my S10 does with the seat in the low position. The handlebar position also felt similar despite my S10 having helibar risers. Not sure if I will replace the already paid for S10 with the new Tracer, but I will definitely be giving it a good test ride when it's released in Japan.
what do you think of the Z900rs cafe? not quite a full fair bike... but god they're pretty. seems like they'd be quite comfortable too.I’ve been looking at the Suzuki GSX-S1000F, 475lbs. Tried one on for size yesterday, knees are a bit more cramped, about 10 more degrees bent compared to the ST. Otherwise felt great. I have not test rode one but it clicks some “basic” buttons.
This bike lists for around $10k and it was marked down $500..
I jumped back on the ST to finish out the day in the saddle and looked at all the creature comforts that the F model didn’t have, no heated grips, no cruise, no electric suspension but it is adjustable, less wind protection and not as roomy and not much storage room for a water bottle and hat.
It does have killer looks, decent size fuel tank and a rock solid motor though.

I hate making deals anyway and haven’t had a chain since the 80’s but I sure would like to give it a try.
That’s a cool bike and it fits me pretty good but it doesn’t turn me on that much. Mainly the rear end looks awkward to me. The CB1000R would be my choice over the Z900rs but it’s got a few quirks that the 1000F wins over.what do you think of the Z900rs cafe? not quite a full fair bike... but god they're pretty. seems like they'd be quite comfortable too.
man that honda is pretty dope. I am a total whore for single sided swingarms.That’s a cool bike and it fits me pretty good but it doesn’t turn me on that much. Mainly the rear end looks awkward to me. The CB1000R would be my choice over the Z900rs but it’s got a few quirks that the 1000F wins over.
Interesting to hear that. I'm in the same boat. I have a 2019 Tracer 900 GT and it's a blast to ride but I'm missing the option to take those not-so-nice roads once in a while. I've owned 3 Vstroms, an FJR, etc. I also have a WR250R which is fully kitted out for adventure travel (Baja...).I traded my 2016 FJ-09 ( name changed to Tracer 2yrs ago) for a 2019 ST in May 2020 and have not looked back. Much more comfortable, plenty of power. Not as quick, but the ST handles better, in my opinion, in every day riding. Haven’t tried it yet, but the off road option is a plus. FJ had the most uncomfortable seating position, not improved much with aftermarket Sargent seat.
