I bought a second hand 2003 marauder a few weeks ago.
I'm 6 foot and 13 stone, I get up to about 60mph on a straight flat road with little wind, but top gear does tend to drop the speed down to 55, so I have to stay in 4th at high revs to keep at 60 in order to keep up with traffic on A roads.

Sounds fine, more or less the same as my CG though I'm a bit heavier than you Very Happy

My top gear responds the same as well. Unless theres a nice tailwind or downhill section it always knocks about 5mph off
