Do you feel the sporter was too small due to seat (even with mod)? Frame? Or the small tank that made the trip suck?
Suspension. It's moddable (pretty much everything on it is) but I just made a rear adjustment and took off. The stops didn't help, but those were too bad because it's got the 4.5 gallon instead of the peanut tank. I got whipped around by the wind pretty good at one point because it's small.
I came up riding a goldwing which is like a car on two wheels so I've got a pampered butt.
