Must say that I rode for eight days straight, and for about 7 hours every day on my 748 and my arse didn't really hurt. A little discomfort on the motorway, but otherwise I was so rarely still, it wasn't a problem. Move around on the seat more!

Anyways, hope you get it to your liking.

i agree with ath748, i've had 3 weeks from 6-12 hrs in the saddle (749) and it was fine apart from really hot weather. i thought my wrists and backside would go in the first day but it turned out they didn't really hurt at all, it was the tops of my arms that ached. btw i'm 6'2

Try a pair of quality padded cycling shorts under your leathers, you would be very surprised at the difference they make!!!!
