Comfy seat or not, so far i'm enjoying this bike (Templar X). I hope it keeps running. I'm a hiker/backpacker and was after something just to get me to some trailheads with my gear. I've been riding a 2001 Honda Shadow but the 20+ miles of gravel road sometimes gets sketchy. Just bought the Templar about a month ago, got it registered, pannier racks, dunlops D605s, 40T rear, windshield and wheel balance. Been riding it to work everyday for break in and got my 500 miles in now. Thinking about a shakedown trip if this heat dome ever breaks.
