[QUOTE="Bill Lumberg, post: 1367521, member: 87479"] It's a good point. Posture is important, but is no substitute for good LD ergonomics. For the fjr, that takes some fixing. My last sport tourer didn't require any mods for LD travel. But this one did. My old sport tourer broke down annually. This one doesn't, and with all the mods it has an actual sport touring rider position like the old one. On a long trip, move around. If I know I'm going to be riding all day and into the night, once an hour I'll stretch. Reach back and grab a bag guard and twist my torso on each side. Extend each arm all the way up and back. Stand up once in a while. If I come off the bike, my helmet comes off. It doesn't need to, I do it to avoid hot spots and to let my head breathe a little. Mine is a dream to ride. Hope yours will be.
