After about 500 miles - the "ants in the pants" syndrome kicks in for me... Just can't find a comfy position. Constantly adjusting to no avail...
 
700 is the longest in a 24hr period. After about 600miles my lower body was just not comfy at all. No matter what position I was in, I need a new seat.
 
A little over 500 miles on the `03 with three stops total and my knees were aching pretty bad. I will be looking into these Buell pegs???
 
460 miles to the midwest meet n greet this year. it was 108 when i left at 3:30pm i took 3 fuel stops and 1 dinner stop about 8:00. otherwise rode straight through with no stops. arrived at 10:45 pm at busawhipped's place. a camel back was required for the ride. strangely enough i didnt have any pains except my buttox. the undies i was wearing caused a lil chaffing.
 
968 miles in 24 hours 2 up. Meandering route from north Alabama to the gulf coast to eat and then meandered back.

Couple good trips this summer. 6500km in 12 days from Alberta, Canada to Reno, Nevada and return home for Busa Stampede. Travelling 3 days each way on the trip I averaged 800km a day. Then last trip was just couple weekends ago 2 travel days of 1050km per day to and from Kelowna, BC. Was in Kelowna for a day and a half.

My k8 has no comfort mods, except shorty levers, and I think my farthest ride without stopping was a little over 500. Cycling shorts under leathers really help.
 
Bought a Gen II with stock pegs, seat and windscreen, added a cramp buster:
Picked up the bike on a Friday noon near Tulsa - to Tupelo MS - about 540 mi
Next day Tupelo to Ocala FL - just about exactly 600 mi - might have gone all the way to Ft Lauderdale that day - but hit dense fog in Alabama in the morning and thunderstorms in Ocala that evening
Next day Ocala to Ft Lauderdale - about 300

Felt great the whole way
 
Greetings,

Longest trip was on my 99 Yamaha R1 from Raleigh NC to Toronto including the blue ridge at the top portion. ( 1450 Km.s , 900 miles) funny,

I had a BMW GS but didnt get anywhere near as many miles in one day.( 600?)

It only took 2 days to recover ,lol
 
I put in 320 but all within an hour radius of my house. We go to the Cherrahola and Deals Gap and hit those roads several times before we head back home. Nice roads, good times.
 
I voted over 1000 but that was before I read the post, did 1200 on my Harley during an endurance event, no highway, all secondary roads, 9, 980 miles in 10 days, Hoka Hey event. On my Busa I have only done 400 in a day, people on sport bikes that I ride with don't tend to ride long. I feel perfectly fione after a 300- 400 mile run on teh Busa but my sport bike groupings tend to hae me as the only Busa and the rest are 600's and 1k's so I understand, plus they are younger.
