'99 Legend TT900 riding position

I am considering purchasing the aforementioned Triple. Welcome comments from the guru's concerning the riding position and how might it differ from that of a '03 TB.

Should be very similar, but the Legend will have a lower seat height, so if you are long legged you might want to think about it.

Very comfortable. Middle foot position makes for easy long rides. If you're old like me, you'll enjoy that. TBS has back set foot position whereas the TB does not. Legend has much the same ride as TB. Slightly lower. You may not even notice the difference.
