How do you find the riding position and what's it like at 70mph

At 5' 11" and a 32/34" inside leg, I find the Riding Position is 'Sit Up And Beg'
The angled bits at the front don't really allow for feet forward with out a large (and uncomfortable...) bend at the ankles...
The Arse stop is non adjustable (unlike the Majesty which is fittable in one of 3 positions front to back - say - 4 " of adjust?) - would go 1" further back if I had a choice...
Not as stretched out in the arms as a T Max, but not short like my SH125 - Comfy Sporty rather than Sporty Comfy...
Seat is wide but does taper at the front for those shorter of leg...
@ 70mph bang on cruising fine with a little zip in reserve... I've fitted the DrPulleys but at OE weight... I tried 10% down but found it too revvy on a stop start commute, never mind at constant higher speeds that would make even higher revs...
Currently @ 24000 miles...

Grab an 'Arse Demo' at ya local dealer if you cant get a moving one...
Sat on the new 300 (Large 250!) at the ExCel show in Feb... The 300 is way smaller and more compact...
400 has bigger alround dimensions...
mind the 400's fat arse wiv the twin air boxes and 'zorst...
