What's wrong with a 500 mile one day ride?

Funny thing about butt pain. Get off the bike, walk around for 20 minutes, rub some circulation back in and you are generally ready to ride some more.

Even with a severe case, go to a hotel, get a good nights sleep and the next morning you are ready to go another 500.

I hear what you're sayin', Ferret. I generally do some stretching at gas stops and stand on the pegs when there's any slow-going and that usually works. But as the miles accumulate it seems like the pain returns much quicker after taking a break. I have permanently mis-aligned hips, sciatica and a bum knee so I've yet to ride any distance on a stock seat I liked. Ibuprofin is my friend and riding companion!

I feel your pain, Scoobynut.
I rode 196 miles yesterday which included many many stops. It even got to the point that my butt hurt as well as my newly-repaired knee.
The 200 mile trips might have to be cut way back, but there is NO WAY I'm getting rid of this bike! It is everything I want in a motorcycle.
