So glad you mentioned the ear plugs that for me is easily the #1 thing to be able to ride a long time and so many people neglect it

If you like spotbikes and touring then what you really need is:

I ridden my 899 Panigale on several trips through Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam - it's ALWAYS HOT, as in 30-37c and often pouring rain. All of Rokkit's suggestions are good and easy to do - i did like the changing position options, i feel i've tried them all (sort of). But i think the two most helpful tips are: (1) take regular stops - 2 hours typically, (2) drink water frequently. Have fun, take care.

Very informative vid. I busted out laughing when you switched riding position to reverse riding. lol

Sooo pretty sure 95% of this applies to any bike. Not just sportbikes

one question; why this master piece doesnt have much views and most of the shit on YouTube has M?... I dont understand...really.

Good vid. I’m planning a out of state trip come April. I’ve ridden 285 miles non stop before and didn’t suffer too bad. My bum was sore from the hard seat most of sportbike riders know. My back and wrists were just fine. From past experiences, I never leave on ride of any size without a cell phone. Mankind’s best friend.

This is not limited to sports bike. This is applicable advice for (motor)bikers in general.

Biggest thing to include....tire plug kit...they can be small and compact and will save you if you hit a nail..

went from Miami ,FL - Alexandria, LA on a GSXR600. 1,050 mile journey. Fun. Except it started at 80 degrees in Miami and I arrived when it was 12 degrees.

I've done 3 cross country tours, usually averaging 900-1500 miles a day depending if its highway or back roads. Heated grips are a must, not an option. Full rain gear from head to toe is a must, not an option. Training is a must, you need to go to a gym and do squats and deadlifts and shoulder presses if you want to ride past the 1000 mark per day. Strength is key, and it must be trained. And also, pain tolerance and mental tolerance, embracing the pain and telling yourself while smiling that its all good CONSTANTLY. Over and over and over again.

just bought a cbr600rr and plan to take it across 2 states in May. Needed this, thank you for existing.
