Default Question?

Is it just me or is the F2 the most ball braking bike ever built?

I mean my nuts are killing me after a sesson riding, and sometime they get stuck up there and I have to hop up and down for a couple of seconds just so they can decend again...

any ideas on how to stop the pain?

It is just you. The F2 is way more comfortable than most sport bikes. (it isn't a cruiser though).

yes, you will have to adjust occasionally. (shouldn't be painful though) maybe you should see a doctor?

i agree 100% on ball buster. I have ridden modern sport bikes and they aren't as bad for some reason. The heavier my backpack is, the worse it crushes my ***** on my f2

The riding position is much more comfortable than modern sport bikes, BUT as far as smashing my nutsac, this bike takes the cake and I don't know why.

If anybody has a fix besides " man up" please let me know, I'm all ears

Before i take a long ride a lift my nuts up and sit down and then let them drop back down. haha i noticed long rides hurt my nuts pretty bad but little quick ones around town arent to bad since thee are lights to adjust at. If they are getting stuck though go see a doctor. when i comes to my nuts im taking no chances. haha

yup I knew I wasent alone on this one, the F2 is alittle more comfy than your super agressive all out RR's but dam that seat angle is just all wrong.

I love the bike, its super quick and accelerates really smooth but I sure wish I could stand riding longer than half an hour without wanting to go home.It would be such a trip to take it up US27 to Lake Okeechobee and down through snake road but o'well I think I'll just have to man up.

and I agree with halffast, i've had six other bike than this one. From the 07' R6 and the 06' 636... yeah the larger ones killed your back and wrists but you just got used to it after a while. Hopefully I'll figure something out with this one cause I ain't giving this one u anytime soon

Yeah. I jump a set of railroad tracks every day on the way to school and my tatty-growlers take a firm blow. My housemate's bikes don't bust me up. The GSX-r 750 and my friend's MZ Baghira are way more comfortable, even though they don't look the part at all.
Oh well. I got two f2's for $1250. He paid a little more for the jixxer.

You could always get an aftermarket seat. I've heard good things about Corbin seats, but don't have any experience with them personally. I just try to move around in the seat as much as I can while riding. When that stops working, then get off for awhile and walk around to take the pressure off of the "lads".
