SS Comfort
I'd agree with the masses here that the '99+ SSs are sportbikes and not known for comfort. The belt drive carbie SSs are much better comfort wise, especially with a few mods (helis, seat). To put things in perspective, I had my '78 SS out last weekend, now THAT is an uncomfortable bike.
I must say the re-sale comments surprise me. I paid $8500 for my '96SS SP in 1997 and in these parts at least would still get around $5000. Not bad for eight years and 30K miles. Better still, my '78SS went for around $4,000 new. In good shape, you can get $12,000 plus for them.
