Hello- Just Bought my first FZ1 a couple of weeks ago in the Minneapolis/St. Paul. Finally got ride it for the first time on Saturday. rode it 50 miles or so going up and down the gears to accommodate the break in period. It was about 50 degrees F, so it was a little chilly, but I had my Scorpion leggings and Jacket. Brought it back to the apartment complex where my gf lives. My plan was to drive it back to Ironwood (UP of Michigan, where I live) on Easter b/c the weather was suppose to be 60 and sunny. So I woke up on easter a little later than I wanted and started on my journey to my moms house ( eau Claire, WI ). Can't tell you how long it took, but it couldn't have been more than an hour or so of riding, but my arse just started getting sore. I also had a backpack on which was very uncomfortable during the ride.
I ate dinner at my moms and then journeyed on home. ended up stopping about 3 more time to give my but a break. I figure that if I want to continue seeing my gf on bike taking 3.5/4 hour trips I'll need a new seat. SO, any suggestions on what seat to go with. Do the after market seats even make much of a difference? Let me know what you have and how it works for you. I'm not worried about price since I don't really feel the need to add HP to the already satisfying stock output, and the fact that comfort will make my trips go by much faster.
thanks in advance
