i fitted a MetalMule lowering kit to my Ten which did help. This lowers the back 12mm, i then dropped the forks 12mm to match and increased rear preload.
The bike does carry its weight exremely well. i have been surprised how good a road bike it is. Andy

Well after all this i've gone for the TRANSALP....:blushing:

Yeah I didnt believe it or even thought about it until a mate of mine at work told me about them, so went to HONDA to see for myself and got to say the seating and feel of the bike is very good.

something I really didnt expect.

Will post pictures and info soon.

Once again thanks for all your help and also the welcome of this HUBB....:scooter:
