Comfort!
« on: 12 April 2012, 07:52:54 pm »
Hi all,


Just rode the Antrim Coast road on my FZ6 S2. As usual a stunning ride. Prob close to 200 miles, and I am sore. Suffer from tennis elbow, so elbows and forearms are painful, as well as butt, lower back and thighs. (guess I'm getting old

why dont you upgrade suspension and the seat miles cheaper than getting a new bike ;)

I did 170 miles around Wales today on my FZ6S2 and I have tennis elbow (concreting and lifting plasterboard) and a bad back but the Fazer never makes me sore

I developed my tennis elbow whilst getting thrashed by my son at Xmas, on the Wii, whilst slightly inebriated,,,
 
(it's all about knowing when to accept defeat!)
 
Doesn't affect the throttle hand though  :lol
