Most legroom on a GS- 1100/1150/1200

I'm looking to get a GS, likely an 1100 or 1150. One of my primary motivations (among many) is more legroom and comfort than I have on my Bandit 1250. According to cycle-ergo.com, the 1100 has...

Anyone have pics of a 72 xs650 battery area?

I'm putting my XS2 back together and am a little lost on what goes where. Should have taken some pics prior to taking stuff apart, but of course, I didn't. Any help would be welcome.

The ergos are great......if you are a 4th grader. I'm 6'3 and sat on one yesterday; it had way less room than my 1970 CB750 I sold last year, and there is no chance I could comfortably ride one.
