Default 2008-2009 ZX-10R Owners, give me your honest opinion.

Okay, im just curious. I've sit on a 2009 ZX-10R and the seat felt rather uncomfortable... bike was at stock height and it was uncomfortable on the insides on my legs. I'm 5'7" 220lbs average body. I was on my tip toes trying to hold the bike up. The dealer said the bike can be lowered up to 2".

I want your honest opinion, is the seat on the ZX10R Uncomfortable while riding? Sitting? I know no sportbike is comfy. I' was just curious.. It felt much harder then the ZX6R.

hmm, I do not have that ride. But all of my zx rides have seats that are sharp edged. Not good for us short f'ers at cruising but actually works at speed. Just my thoughts on it.

thats what I was thinking, my buddies gixxer 1k's seat is pretty nice, and rounded, as oppsed to the sharp angled Zx seat. Maybe someone makes a nice rounded gel seat or something.
