It actually has about a half inch more than my Vulcan apparently.
I've actually found that the Vulcan starts hitting the exhaust around the same time as the floorboards however - the pipes on the Star Venture look to be higher, so hopefully they don't do the same. I like to get my lean on often and scraping the floorboard feelers is a lot less puckering than feeling your exhaust touching down and then having to ride that fine line. I've never done it as I got pretty good at riding that line, but of course eventually it would turn into a lowside.
My old VTX would touch down on the boards and then I could feel them folding up if I pushed harder, but it rarely touched the pipes. It felt much more safe to me. Hoping the new ride will be the same.
Taken from another thread for those who missed it there, this is a crop from one of the photos of me on the dragon a few years back.

This is usually the point where my sport touring riding buddies tell me in an exasperated voice that I should have bought an FJR or a beemer or something, but yeah, I like the couch on wheels with a big old stupid v-twin in it too much.
