Rider Geometry

It's getting close to the time to renew my tabs on my R1100R, but instead I'll be stripping it down for a ground up rebuild. Looking at a replacement ride since when I'm done, it will no longer be a decent touring ride.

I've always liked the Rockster, but am wondering if the rider geometry is better than the R11R. I have bad knees and spent 9 hours in the seat last summer, by the end of the day my knees were killing me. Sat on some newer RT's and GS's, really like the seating position, a couple extra inches between the seat and pegs makes a world of difference.

Anyone here go from a R11R to a Rockster and can comment on the geometry?

Dude, great information. Thanks!
