yeah the day i got my 954rr, the 75 mile ride home almost killed me cause i didn't have the proper riding posture figured out...i was strickly a cruiser/dirtbike rider before going to that style bike, but once i learned the proper way to sit, my only limitation on a ride was how much fuel was in the tank

balls of your feet on the pegs (aka "catcher's stance") & use your back & stomach muscles to support your upper body & only enough pressure in your hands on the bars to control the bike & even the "buzzy-est" bike can/will be comfortable to ride.....usually
