i always wondered.. i personally like to sit close to my tank when i drive...but i see some people sitting more backwards towards the back of the seat... any comments on this?

my nuts are always crushed up against the tank... always.

i say its whatever your comfy with. i had a 929 and i sat back further. on my r1 and r6 i sit up on the tank though.. just watch your belt on the tank.. get a tank protector

my nuts are always crushed up against the tank... always.

same here yes.. hurts like hell when you come down fast of a wheelie..:lol

same here yes.. hurts like hell when you come down fast of a wheelie..:lol haha yeah or bumps. But for my taste it feels way better than sitting back. Im more in control

..it just looks better too :) it might be just me but it looks kinda noobish sitting back far..

the only reason why I would be back towards the rear of the seat is when you're in full tuck which is pretty darn rare if you're on the street.

I love the assmonkey squids that roll down the interstate with their ass slid back, laying on the tank and feet on the rear passenger pegs!! :crash :lol :lol

haha i had some loser on a honda pull up next to me in my vette look over kick his feet back on the back pegs exactly as you described and take off.. i was like.. wtf was that...

have you notice AMA and GP racers seating position?

I always wear a jock. When friends argue it's not nessesary I point out that God was more generous to some of us.

haha i read the title and was like "yea i sit on top of the fuel tank" but realized thats not what its about. My nuts are always up on it... just how the seat puts me. On long rides when im bored i jump up and sit on the actual tank...

I also always sit up on the tank. I feel more comfortable there

I was balls to the tank before i did the seat mod. Now, I'm back just a bit.

I know I am new here...so hello everyone.

I was always felt it was comfortable to sit near the tank because thats kinda were the bike puts you when riding relaxed. Now if you are talking about racing, you shouldnt really be fixed in one spot because you are trying to transfer body weight were it is needed.

THATS WHERE I AM.AS A DEFAULT
A LOT OF MY RIDING STYLE I DEVELOPED FROM
RIDING MOTO-X FOR YEARS.

-I CLUTCH WITH MIDDLE AND RING FINGER TOGETHER =(JUST GIVES ME MORE CONTROL)

- I BRAKE WITH MY INDEX AND MIDDLE FINGER TOGETHER =MUCH BETTER PRECISION BRAKING.

-I RIDE W/ BALLS ON THE TANK MY CENTER OF GRAVITY FEELS CORRECT THATS WHERE THE BIKE FEELS LIKE THE FULCRUM IS......BEARING IN MIND I DONT FIXATE THERE I MOVE WHEN NEED BE.
