It's totally killing me. I unfortunately lost my daily rider (2015 Thruxton) in an accident last fall and have been looking for a replacement bike to fill the daily rider spot. The new Thruxton R went to the top of the list, but when I sat on it I just didn't fit right. I'm 6'5" and 220 lbs with a lanky long build and I couldn't get my knees in the tank pockets on it. Nothing from Japan interested me, and while I considered a Brutale, I wanted something with more utility and usability. In the mean time, starting a high compression SS with FCR's isn't always guaranteed if the weather is below 50 F - there's no choke on them.Welcome to these ends and congratulations on pulling the trigger.

Thanks. It really is a nice bike, but it's been quite the project. Had sat for 3 years before I got it, so every bit of rubber and ignition gave up within the first 200 miles of riding it. Borderline basket case that's now a dreamboat to ride. Every "upgrade" listed is because the original item failed somehow. Except for the wheels, those came up on the big forum for a price too good to pass up, so I didn't.Welcome............ sounds like a nice bike you have.
