Ricky, the F800ST's ergonomics emphasize the sport part of the sport-touring equation, IMHO. With my 3rd artificial right knee, that leg doesn't bend quite enough for me to be comfortable for long rides. I know that most people could fit the 800ST, but for me, it's not a real option. I wish it were. If it had ergos more like the R1200RT, the 800ST would be #1 on my list.

I would have thought that with 3 knees, you could wrap your right leg around your waist if you wanted to.
