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.

My MPG easily drops by like 10% whenever I go out on the London Foccer rides But I can easily justify the extra cost with the extra fun ^^

I filled up yesterday having done only the brum meet and the subsequent ride out and was surprised that fuelly only reported a drop in mpg of 3.  I was stunned.

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