If you're used to the 999 tho' you shouldnt have any problems with the R. |
What were you doing sitting at the front of the seat?The best place to park your bum is at the rear of the seat where its wider.(Twice as wide as a 996!)
I did nearly 300 miles up to Yorkshire this weekend and the only aches I had was through the footrests.Nowt to do with the bike,just my worn out Sidi's.Compare that to Jools report of the same rideout,and he was riding a sports tourer!
Perhaps I'm a funny shape!(Dont answer that!)
Iang,
Dont forget the seat/tank is also adjustable to bring you nearer the 'bars.Go for it.
