600rr wins every test/review out there. I do 250+ miles a week on mine and never have any issued with comfort. gsxr's great if you're of a shorter frame.

You might be a bit disappointed in thecb1000r....not very exciting to ride...but looks the mutts nuts.

How about a SV1000n ? Though you can only get them second hand now...

Looks like that might be a lie -

I did know they did this one "The SV1000 Classic'

For £5650 you get seat cowl and Renthal bars too.

Funny you should say that, im only 5'' 4' and usually find sports bike seats are lower but wider and tend to splay my stumps out too far.
