I bought the CTX700N last week. I traded a 2003 ST1300 with 79000 miles on it. Top heavy bike but great for long distance riding. I love the CTX, low seat, light weight and flickable. Have enjoyed reading all the threads in the Forum. Great to be aboard!

rocky17, welcome to the forum. the CTX is no St1300 but what it is, you have found you like and that's what riding what floats your boat it is all about.

I just did 70 miles after work tonight to a nearby town. Earlier we had wind advisories but bike was fine in the wind gusts except I dropped it down a gear due to the head winds were straining 6th gear but 5th does 70+ ok anyway. Some think it is light in the wind and can be blown around but I think it is no worse than any other light weight bike I have had.
