doesnt it really suck!
 
when you find out that your bike is not as comfortable as you thought it would be!

went to Carslile PA. this weekend and put a little over 650 miles in two days on the bike, and after the first 120 to 140 miles it wasnt too bad, anything after that, i could have just parked the thing on the side of the road and walked all the way there... it would have hurt alot less to do so....

what a shitty ride!! i enjoyed the event, but the ride is half the fun and that sucked!

the chicks were hot, the show was pretty good, starboyz did a good job, the bikini contests was hot, the burn out contest was great as well, but did i tell you about the ride?? it hurt!

i need a new cruiser now:(

Cycling shorts with the pads in the ass under whatever you're wearing.

I dont want to hear any crying. I spent the whole day doing a trackday at VIR and then left the track at 6:30 pm and drove straight home to NJ. By myself no less. Got home @ 2:30 in the morning. :arrr:

I can feel your pain in that I will be trailering the bike home to NY after VIR this weekend. Not fun esp when my gf who I tell to help keep me awake is asleep before we even get onto rt 29:arrr:

Those cruisers give a false security on "comfort". Sportbikes are actually more easy on the gluteus since the weight seems to be more on the legs than anything.

I heard the '08 R1 has a comfy saddle. ;)

Only if it was something like a VFR that I had bought. I purchased my GSXR with the knowledge that it was a street legal racebike, not a sport-tourer.
