I sat on a Continental before I bought the Bullet and found it a bit uncomfortable. For me, the bars were too low and I`m a short a$$ and my feet were tip-toe. Lovely bike but also the thread about one dropping a valve helped me make up my mind. Good luck Rufus  ;) Steve.

I've had a sit on one and sadly it was far too radical a riding position for me...
