If you want to ride up to Pataskala, I have a 1" lowered seat that you can borrow.  This would let you see if you like it before sinking  $ into it (and potentially not liking the results). 
 
	I can't stand flat footed on the Connie either.  My only issue is backing it up in off camber or gravel areas.  At those places, I back it up before getting on it.
