Riding position
Hey everyone, its a bit of a noobie question i know but hey, its how you learn... ive only ever ridden road bikes before and now that im on a sports bike (zx9r) i cant quite seem to find a particularly comfortable position. if i sit right forward against that fuel tank its okay but its not particularly sporty, and if i have my butt pushed back and lean forward i tend to get a sore neck, also what the best position to be in if i've got a pillion as well? hopefully that wont be for too long though, my fiance' is going for her L's in 2 days, and shes already bought a cbr250rr fireblade. woo! =P okay its not a kwaka but any bikes better than no bike..=P

Re: Riding position
sit forward, grip the tank with ya knees. bend your arms. do the chicken dance to keep "loose"
