I've always been a bit weird, I love LONG rides but I have yet to see a touring bike that I'm interested in riding. In fact, I somewhat enjoy doing trips on bikes not meant for that purpose. My old bike, a Honda 599 went on several 400+ mile rides with me including a backroads road trip to and from LA. Could have used a better seat but otherwise it was fine.In comparison the Hypermotard is fantastic. I find the riding ergonomics for my 6'3" frame to be extremely comfortable, and coming from am mountaing biking background, the stance is confidence inspiring (possible more so than is good for me). I've done a few days over 500 miles and aside from general fatigue I've not really found anything about the bike uncomfortable.I'll be doing a cross country trip next year to celebrate my 40th year on this planet with a ride to and from Colorado, taking time to ensure I can spend as much of that ride as realistically possible off the interstate. The Hypermotard to me is the perfect machine for this.I'm only 300 miles away from 10,000 myself and aside from a bad O2 sensor and a recent trip into limp mode (dealer is investigating as I type) the bike has given me no issues and lots of grins.
