Agree. I can do 400-500 miles in a day (12 hours) on mine and aside from vibrations if cruising on a motorway, and maybe a tired bum for the last hour, it’s fine.
Have a H2 SX, an FJR and this. Same colour as yours. I'm 61 and never had a sports bike before, because I thought I'd need a chiropractor as an escort. This is relatively upright for a sports bike, far more comfortable than any other sporty option. I've had it out on rides of several hours. It's not as comfy as my other bikes, but it's not bad at all. The little screen gives a lot of wind protection and the electronics and quickshifter are great. And the sound? Love it. The only thing I don't like are the blurry mirrors. BTW, bought mine new in July 2021 and have had no issues whatsoever.
Done 4,000km on mine have grips still like new and bought mine in May 2024, street riding expect a big fuel bill it drinks at slow speed, push it and it’s really economical, I find it far more comfortable to ride than a cbr or zxr far less leant over but then I am only 5ft 8
I enjoy the zx6r more (just for the power) but the Aprilia is WAY more comfortable. Don’t get me wrong, the Aprilia has great power but in a different way 👍🏼 Both bikes are winners in my book
Why do people just let all their weight rest on the wrists? You can train your core muscles which allow you to hold your weight on your abs and back muscles, keeping hands very chill. Of course that requires one to train these muscles.... but holding the weight on core is an excercise in itself.
The newer Italian bikes have improved a lot though, ducatis since the 959 and above, similar albeit a little later with aprilias. The annoying thing is the bespoke tooling mainly they use making standard maintenance expensive

I had one for 4 months from new, travelled to france and spain and back to UK without any issues. It can cover distance easily and comfortably
I found the same, surprisingly comfortable considering the ergos, and a load of fun to ride 👍

Nice! Did you sell it then? How comes?

I ride a 2023 zx6r, and a 2024 Rs 660. 2 Amazing machines 🙂 Ty for a Great review.
Which one do you like the most and which one is more comfortable?

Literally just started a warranty claim for the tearing on the throttle grip after 5 months! 🤦♂️😆
It cracks me up people complain about comfort. Try riding a high end racing bicycle for 6 hours

Italian design and build quality are 2 vastly different things.

@@KamBenni3 Yep, Ducati improved so much, but remember that Ducati owners are now Audi, so German engineering helps a lot.
1 year, 14000 km and 10 track days. No issues what so ever. It's a complete riot on the track. I'm 62 and ride for more than 1 hr with no issues.
Glad to hear it. They're such fun bikes 👍
Anything with rs, rr, or rr-r in its name is not really for commuting
Yes it is. It's just for commuting really quickly. At 130 miles per hour. 🏍️
@@phoenixzappa7366 the government will be very unhappy with you
@@thedriverofallthings 😁😆 true. 🤘🛵🛵🛵
Yup rode my katana 750 at 140mph for 3 plus hours to Myrtle Beach from CLT
Probably a good rule of thumb, although surprisingly the ZX-4RR is the exception to the rule. Actually comfy to ride with fairly neutral ergos 👍
uh huh ofcourse haha
