I did like the upright riding position (on a GoldWing) π
and sometimes off the bike tooπ
Riding is always a compromise of sorts, very few bikes get the balance correct without the aid of a some form of fairing , either your head is being ripped off or your wrists, knees and back ache from a crouched over position It 's all good fun whilst it lasts, and a very good excuse to wear leather

in public.
