Tom spare yourself a CPT trip, you can buy the L with confidence just budget on a better rear spring
I rode a 250L the other day great little bike, the 300 will be even better. Lots of small improvements and it’s lighter than before. It’s a Honda 
Thanks buddy, but according to Hardy the springs are stiffer on the new model. He is a tad heavier than me and says it's just fine.
I want to go not only for the bike but also for the people, I always keep missing WD Bashes due to the nature of my work and it would be great to see some of the old faces like '
@woody1 's friend

and also meet some of the other guys and girls. I have interact and become friends with so many people on the forum for years yet to meet in person!
Will see if I can work something out.
