I find the ergonomics of the bike, spot on and far more comfortable than the GS. My backside gets a bit sore after 70 or 80 miles, but I think this is mainly due to the very upright sitting position, which puts all the weight onto the cheeks of your backside. I ride a 1300 pan euro all day and that seat is far more tolerable.

Congrats on your purchase Dave. I have to say you are quicker on the uptake than me ( not sure if that's much of a compliment ). I've been riding my Tiger for a year and have only just figured this out. Even now only because a friend got bigger risers for his FJR and commented on the difference in pressure points it caused.

His solution is an Airhawk seat and after trying it out I'll get one as well.

Cheers
