Enjoyed your vid. I'm looking at a bigger touring motorbike. What would I need to do with the 1400 to ensure comfort on a long ride? I have some arthritis in my hands so I need a position where there is not much weight on them. I also need a comfortable seat - is this where the 1400 falls down? Otherwise it looks to be smooth and torquey. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers

Thanks for your comments Andy. I have put a pull back riser on my handle bars to help me sit up straighter on the bike. That did help but its still not enough to get me sitting up straight. I had the seat re padded but it still didn't lower my seating position. My next option is to buy a $1,000.00 seat specially designed to lower your center of gravity. The Kawasaki GTR is a sports tour and designed to give you the race bike feel with the power included plus some comfort that a touring bike offers. Honestly if I was buying a bike for comfort I would purchase a touring bike like the Honda Valkyrie that I had in my garage or a similar shaped bike. You want to get it right first time if you are purchasing a bike so go to a motorbike shop and sit on the different range of bikes they have to offer until you find the most comfortable one to suit your needs. Good luck and take care my friend.
