Nut Crusher?

Kawasaki H2 SX SE.jpg
Test rode the SE today and the Non-SE last week. Different seats, both crush the nether region. Am I the only one?

Other than that, what a great bike. So So smooth and super fast. (I've owned 3 ZX-14s). Great aerodynamics, wind protection, on the SE. Very good riding position. Light clutch. Excellent mapping. Nice paint and design. SE is so much more than the standard. Can't say enough good about the bike other than the crunch. On fence right now on buying.

Yea, it's not the most comfortable seat out there even after I replaced it with the premium high seats. I have to keep moving my butt around every so often :rant:

Yeah I'm 6'2" and I realized after a day of riding that I need to put my ass into the butt stop at the back of the seat. That solved the nut slap. Ha!

I find that if you can see the bump/jolt coming :bat: , then grip the tank with your knees helps, especially if braking at the time.
