Default Comfort

So I finished the MSF course today and found that riding cruisers/standards is much more comfortable than riding my 600RR. So here's the question, how do I adjust this thing for comfort? New seat? What can I do?

on the constructive side, check out corbon seats... i understand it makes for a better ride as far as ars pain but takes away from the sport look. THERE IS NO WINNING IN COMFORT especialy if you ride on long trips or 2 up.

What, your 600RR isn’t comfortable? You must have got a defective bike!

You have an awesome bike

But one of the most track oriented and uncomfortable.



New seat... try to raise the clipons slightly? So youre not so hunched over?

Go to an upholstery shop and have them redo your seat with memory foam, so it can mold to your *ss, yet provide that needed comfort in the buttocks/cracks/crotch areas. Don't laugh...it's true. The Corbin and Sargent seats are great, but understand when you get it, the damn things are as hard as rocks. Takes a minute to break 'em in and then they mold to your butt. Start out with the memory foam from jump street and it's more comfortable, less break in time, and it won't cost as much as a Corbin or Sargent seat. Good luck.
