Yes, I know that superbikes are not made for comfort, but if you are going to ride it a lot, you want it to be tolerable, right?
Anyway, I have an '06 GSXR750 now, with a Yoshi exhaust, Bazzaz system, Gilles rearsets, Elka race shock, Traxxion Dynamics AK20 forks, SS braided lines, custom fuel map(133HP), etc... And the bike is comfortable all day long.
I have a chance to get one of the Hayden Edition 848's, and I will sell or trade the Suzuki to get it. This will be my 5th Duc. The S2R and S4RS were ok as far as comfort goes, and I actually enjoyed the 999s and of course the Hypermotard was very comfy. Where does the 848 fall into that lineup? Am I going to regret giving up the GSXR after a week when my back and wrists are killing me? haha
I am 6'4" and 235 pounds. Any guys my size riding the 848? What are your thoughts?
