Hey all, first post and i'm getting back into riding but need a bit of help. I'm looking to get a used sport bike, but am concerned with me having back problems. Is there a more comfortable sport bike that anyone can suggest? Like i said though, i'm getting back into riding from a 20 year hiatus and then i was on a Harley mostly but seemed to gravitate toward the CBR 600F at the time. I'm not afraid and know how much power these bikes really have so if you guys can help with a few selections it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

I found the Buell XB12SS quite comfortable & fun to ride for extended periods. I also have a Ducati Monster that fits the bill for 3-4 hour rides with no complaints. I test rode the FZ1 at Daytona Bike week in 2008 and was impressed with it as well; I think it is also a great value for the money considering the performance it provides. Welcome back to the sport nospeedctrl! Better late than never

As per me for the users having a back problem they can do the modifications with jumper such that it will give less jerk and relieve the stress. They have another obtion with modification of seat that gives back support.
