Passenger Comfort on Sportbikes
 
We know the comfort level on a HD or cruiser, for the most part is nice. But what about a sport bike.

TN Stud got me wondering what is the most comfortable sportbike you have been on as a passenger? Or for a rider?

For me as a passenger, it would be 2000 ZX9, then my bike 04ZX6RR... after that I don't really know as I've not been on the back of many bikes. I will say that the WORST is an 04 ZX10R...again not having been on the back of many.

Honda F4I, can't speak for passenger seats...

Katana is like a rolling couch. I haven't found it's equal in absolute comfort. I haven't ridden a F4i though. Probably along the same lines with the banana seat.

Forgot the Katana and you are correct comfy!

My bro has a pretty good shot of him dragging everything at the gap that made killboy's highlights on his Kan o tuna.

My stock seat for the Ex500 was really comfortable. My SV seat after I had it redone by sargent was really good too.

As far as riding bitch? The sportiest comfortable bike? A VFR. Though i dont know if that counts as a sportbike? With the degeneration of my back, the worse by far, is a Monster. Followed by a ZX7.
