I did a stint around europe last year (belgium, germany including the nurburg ring, the swiss alps, and france). I had no problems with comfort what so ever apart from when my friends decided they wanted to crawl up the alps.... I also used the ventura luggage system (only real option as my 749 is a mono). The luggage system in itself is fantastic, and so convenient once the frame's been fitted to the bike. Only problem I found was at speed, when the front end went a bit light, but I suspect I should have adjusted the suspension to suit. Have to say though, that this was at around 130ish and the luggage system says it's not to be used at such speeds, though i'm sure someone will correct me if i'm wrong, as I didn't pay that much attention to the instructions.
