    To Brasco, I also looked at the Thunderbird LT, no Cruise Control and after checking with Triumph Australia,
    the spoked wheels use tubes in the tyres. I dread the thought of trying to remove a wheel to replace a tube
    on a country road on a bike with only a side stand.

    I dropped into my local Honda dealer today, the 2015 F6B Australian model is $25,000 AUD plus on road,
    it does however come with Cruise Control and Reverse. Have booked a test ride for a weeks time

    Cheers

    Keep us posted on how things go, Auldy. Again, thanks for the great feedback everyone. Jayrock -- I remember riding the Highwood Pass with you last season. I'll be in touch directly!

    I have about a 29" to 30" inseam, and am 5'7" Once moving, it is very easy. I have to tippy toe at lights and can bounce easily between the two sides. It handles well, is very well balanced, and is comfortable to ride. I will say that stopped, it is wide and I have to split wide to stand. Also, it is a heavy bike, so park it such that you can move it and not have to back up a hill to get out of the spot.
