Where oh where can i get a can or 12 of the HTFU???
(or an airhawk?)

hahaha

Yeah you'll find the first few long rides, your rear and arms tend to be a bit sore, but you just do a few more and you'll be right. I was hell sore after the first few long rides on mine but now all good.

get the seat re upholstered. my old man does heaps of bikes (tourers, sports, off road etc) as the seats are always too hard for people, if your uncomfortable then do something about it, you'll enjoy the ride alot more.Everyone's arse is different so the same mass produced slab of foam doesn't suit everyone. I did my seat when I first got my zx6r made it alot more comfortable.

I did 1,400 km on my nine in one day . . .

I was fairly sore, but no biggy

Hey ease up Hmmm well actually probably could if you come to Halls Gap, But seperate beds i feel would be the go.

i did Canberra-albury via the snowies on a 250 (thats about 750km all up) the trick is to pace yourself, and work your way up to long rides.

bigger bikes do make it a little easier

does anyone use the airhawk or tried them out? wondering what peoples thoughts are who've used em

sittting on a cushion now or do i need to htfu?

380k is a ride around the block HTFU or get an Airhawk

Says he with a Sargent seat AND an Airhawk! You should be able to ride from here to the moon without a sore arse with that combo.

So says he who needs a removal van to carry his camping gear lol
