Not being a dick, but can you guys really ride a sport bike for that far? I sat on a couple and they seem insanely uncomfortable next to my retiree old man cruiser. I mean, the sport touring bikes feel great but purely sport bikes I could see being very uncomfortable for touring. e: Basically, are sport bike seats just something to get used to or do people upgrade them typically?

Sagebrush posted:A Ninja 250 doesn't have sport-bike ergonomics. It's a sport-standard with a mostly-upright riding position and just the right amount of forwards lean for general use. (When you're moving, the wind blast tends to push you backwards, so you want a bit of forwards lean to counteract that). You can check out all the different bikes on Cycle-Ergo and you'll see that most of the standards we recommend have very similar riding positions to the Ninjette. -Inu- posted:Completely depends on the person and type of riding. If you have a bad back and/or knees, or are tall, you might not be comfortable on a bike with any sort of forward lean. Or, maybe you won't mind. Friend of mine is tall and lanky and has destroyed knees from years of wakeboarding - he has had multiple surgeries and essentially has zero cartilage left - but he has no problem riding an R6. How in-shape you are can be a factor as well. Riding uses all sorts of weird muscles, and it's easier to fatigue if your body isn't used to extended physical exertion. There's a reason that racers do extensive mountain biking/road cycling/running/etc during off season. Consider me educated, thanks y'all
