[QUOTE="fossilrider, post: 160349, member: 2712"] I'm in love again. After reading the MYRP article on the BMW website, I practiced at home this sitting position while at my computer. This morning I took off the risers and Koubalinks, the bike is back to stock. Just returned from a 3.5 hour non-stop run and I'm smiling. The problem wasn't the bike it was me . Although I had to remind myself several times during the ride, pivot at the hips, arch the back, relax the arms, I can say the bike feels like a different animal. It definitely take practice and will honestly take some time before it's completely natural to me but the difference is dramatic. I'm not sure if it will help others but it definitely made my day more enjoyable. FYI, I'm 59 years old, 5'6" tall and weigh 160lbs. I've attached the link to the MYRP article below for any interested in reading. Take care and enjoy!
