one shop I was working at took in a Ducati trade in, it was a Multistrada. if you felt the seat with your hand it felt like a jell seat but once you sat on it, it felt like a board.

m stock Honda seat is comfy as hell - I never have issues even spending 18-20 hours on it in a day...maybe it's my custom butt that makes the difference

I have no butt padding, but I have a sargent seat. Although I would say it could use a tad more padding.

The seat size is what I think makes it more comfortable.

I didnt mind the mileage at all. The heat that week was ridiculous though. It was a good trip, wish I had slowed down to enjoy it all.

That is about 2200kms


My best is 580kms/360miles in about 5.5 hours.
