what's your height, weight and age...

[Simranjit]

Maybe i'm just to short-old and fat to ride a ducati....my 1098s is killing me. I'm 5'9-220-almost 45 yrs old.

I lift weights regularly and am pretty husky--no big beer belly or anything like that. But man oh man...this bike just pains me.

What's your body type?

 

[Jalyssa M]

6'2" 220 and 18 yrs old, uncomfortable after long periods but a lot better than my brothers R1

 

[Zacc D]

5'8", 180, 38 yrs old. Just got it this winter but the longest ride has been 2 hours and I was fine.

 

[Karrie Shmarrie <3]

5'9", 150lb, 24. I can flat foot it but was told I look small on the bike

 

[carvaz4611]

5'8, 218 lbs., 52....actually hurts my neck more than anything. I often try and sit upright with just my right hand on the throttle side clip on to take the angle out of my neck. Maybe I need a helmet with a bigger eyeport. Puts my right wrist to sleep after about 30-45 minutes. Yes, I'm old and fat too but I still love the 1098 and have no intentions of getting rid of it even if it does cause me some pain. I love the way it looks and handles and the way it makes ME feel when I'm riding it. To enjoy it you really need to take it out on some country roads with nice sweepers because riding around town is definitely a pain.

6'0 175lbs 26years old. The bike fits me fine, you geezers are a bunch of whiners

 

[Sportsfan]

5'9" 165, 47 years old. Comfort's not an issue. Occasionally my hands will start to fall asleep, but that happens on most bikes for me. Easy fix...just flex the fingers when I start to feel it. I've got significant neck issues, as well as back....for some reason, a sport bike's riding position is a rare opportunity for little or no pain. Odd, but true.

 

[Melkiha]

43 years old; 6'0", 175lbs. New to riding, but feels great to me so far.

 

[Taylor_Lautner_fan_11]

5'10" 155lbs, 25.4578yrs old. The bike is fine to me, nothing out of the ordinary sportbike to me. My buddy's 999 feels really stretched out.
