Ur right and that does make a big difference! With my size I can rest my head on my tank bag when riding, as well as shift around. I got a pro gel seat pad for the trip too, took awhile to break in, but after about 1000-1500 miles it was comfortable enough that the wear on my body was much less, seat wise anyway.

Any trips you begin taking on bikes like that are a bit of a body adjustment thing. Ive taken enough long rides, and done enough all day rides to acclimate myself for a long time in the saddle as well as lil tricks I use to spare certain body parts..."spider monkeyin"!

Ah the joys of a good "spider monkeying"! To be young and flexible again!
