Tapatalk just popped up a message that I was banned and I'm thinking that's either a software error or someone took offense to my comments about grammar ;(

Anyway, I am expecting that the Explorer is going to be my next bike.

The question is, how tall are you?
If you are 5'11, then it means it's not blocking any line of sight to the instrument cluster. If, to the contrary,
you are 6'5, then it means the thing is too damn big...
