Exactly! The GZ I'm riding is a loaner. When I'm comfy on it and know for certain I want to keep riding, then I'll be looking to pick up something in the 800-900 cc range. Probably a Boulevard or Vulcan if I buy new. The Vulcan feels the most comfortable underneath me.
As for myself, I'm 6' and 240 lbs. and I do plan to do some highway riding in the future. Since I live in N. Central Texas and work in S. Louisiana there will probably be some commuting on the bike eventually (600+ miles each way). So the GZ is probably just not going to have the legs I need/want. But for now, I'm enjoying it immensely. However, after making my first cold-morning ride (around 45 or so...which is quite cool for S. Louisiana) I definitely know I need to find some warmer gear! My hands were COLD when I got to work this morning. Thank goodness it's only a 10 minute or so ride!
