Anyone wear a cup while riding???? Just curious...I need to start...either that or contour my seat foam,or somthin!!!I feel the bike responds better and more like"one with the bike" when right up on the tank,sit back in the seat and I'm totally disconnected,problem is,hit those bumps in the road,and a guy can really hurt hisself!

I think it would be very uncomfortable and maybe even hut the growing more (at the edges of the cup) in an impact.

ummm, I don't wear a cup while riding, I just have balls of steel. :lol:
I tend to find myself sitting away from the tank if I can, but after a while I got use to it.

 

[JEKYLL]

I dunno but I gotta do somthin!!! Seriously I really got hurt twice now and thats it!!!

My previous bike was a 97 zx600 and the seat went up the tank instead of how this one stops sharply at the tank:scratch:

I feel your pain man. I have smacked the boys against the tank more than once my self. I still don't want a cup.

i do my best to hold myself back squeezing the tank with my thighs. Works well enough.

 

[Gas Man]

Yeah I think you just need to sqeeze the tank more...

 

[GixxerNHemi]

nope! Id probably be preoccupied with it being so uncomfortable and moving around **** that Id forget I was on a bike! could be a hazard more than a savior!!! sitting down...a cup must be really uncomfortable!!!

 

[JEKYLL]

Hmmm,I'm surprized,I would have thought more would have at least modified the seat or somthin,I usually do keep a good squeeze on the tank...I dunno we'll have to see after she goes back together;got lots of mods goin in now that its been to nasty to ride,lots o' nice tasty mods!!!

Do what the MSF course teaches you to do when you hit a bump or object. Lift off the bike. I ain't wearing a cup.

Yep... I do that!!

 

[xcellrtr]

I contoured my seat,but I had a problem with sliding forward during normal riding. :2cents:

 

[R1up0n1]

nut cruncher...ouch!!!!

 

[ScottSellersUNR]

i dont.

but i dont like the feel of the bike when im up to the tank, i like to be as far back in the seat as i can... with my bike at least.

But redoing your seat isnt that hard... look it up, youll find a step by step guide. Just make sure u get good foam for how u want it to feel...use the stock foam as a guide to go harder or softer and thicker or whatnot..

:yikes: Holy Crap dude. This isn't football. And you aren't catching a Nolan Ryan fast ball. Leave the cup in your locker.

Squeeze that tank, get out there and motor...:moped:

Team on 3......1...2...3...TEAM!!! :beer: :sw:

 

[GSXR1000DJ]

WOW. I just don't sit that far up on top of my tank. :lol: :lol:
