And you might be surprised once you get riding and up to speed on the bike - you don't necessarily need to "lay over the gas tank."

You don't have to lay on the tank unless you want to, and that would only be when you wanna tuck down.
And if you get a Double Bubble windshield, that'll help too so you wouldn't have to tuck down as low & won't have to "lay on the tank" as much
But yeah, it's a pretty comfortable bike

Im a fat **** too. I am 5'9" 250 and still can get my wheel up not even trying. I love the look of the RR, but the riding position was not one that I felt comfortable on. LIke stated above, these bikes sit more upright than most people think. This is my first sportbile and I came from riding dirt bikes and 2 dual sports. It was a very easy transition for myself. Good luck. Do not limit yourself to one brand or style. Go out to dealerships and sit on a few to see what you like.
