I done 125 miles on mine yesterday in total going to the road racing.
I was happy enough on the way there, but by the time i got back my arse cheeks were in agony. :moon
100 miles constant on my bike is about my limit because of the seat, but others dont seem to complain of this.
Mine is a 98, are these less comfortable than the 2000 onwards because of the less padding in the seat?
My old '99 was very uncomfortable. Managed to do about 60-70 miles before I had to get off. Did a trip from Bristol to Chelmsford on it - had to stop at every single services on the M4 and M25
My '01 however is fantastic. Did 300~ miles yesterday and only just began to get a bit uncomfortable at the end

I was wondering if the extra padding was just for the passenger or the whole seat on the year 2000 onwards fzs 600.
I can do far more miles on my GSXR 750 without arse pain, and thats not exactly built for comfort.

IT gives me more faith in calculating my range based on my mpg rather than fuel tank
