My wife still says the most comfortable bike we had.
I had an FJR we did 80000miles on I had various other bikes each one was to replace the FJR it didn't get sold though until I got the Ten.

That said I sold it after about 18months, not sure why, maybe because I am not that tall and I dreaded the moment it fell into a car in traffic. I am currently looking for another one though.

When I had the BMW R1200GS, my wife said that's the most comfortable ride she had as pillion
On my second XT660Z Tenere, and she says it's on par with the BMW
Was not happy with the KLR seat at all

Thank you,
every thing I've read on this forum has made me feel better about my upcoming test ride. Really looking forward to getting out there.
Great forum. I've spent hours on here following questions and advice. Will be spending loads more time here for sure.

Will definitely update on my test ride,problem is there's not too many out there and they tend to be more than a few hours away. Work does get in the way of some things.
