The problem with soft seats (like most Suzukis) is that they allow your butt bones to sink down, which puts more pressure on what's in between (your taint/prostate).
well on a sport bike I'd agree... especially when your riding agressively...

but the DRZ's seat isn't really SOFT... it's hard actually... but there's no plastic ribbing to poke me in the arse

[QUOTE=Mikey;277609]You found a great deal. Current MSRP (US Dollars):

1125R $12,499
XB12R $10,299
GSXR1000 $12,899
ZX10R $11,799

I can get a brand new 1125r with FULL FAIRING (yes it looks sweet) for about 10,000 not including tax. numbers can be massaged either direction.

Never hated a bike but i did not like the 1125cr

Triumph Speed Triple ......no steering damper, felt wobbly - upright position beats you to death - supension way too soft - power was disappointing.
