Okay, this is a funny question. I was thinking about this as I was out for my ride today. It's funny and I crack myself up however, I am serious though.

Does anyone feel like your elephant trunk is so long that it's kinda uncomfortable to ride and you consistantly have to adjust? I felt like I had to adjust at every damn light. lol

I felt it was a Seinfeld moment and I should have asked Krammer and George, Do I put it to the left or the right or just sit on it and deal? LOL

I have a bigger problem with the balls than the trunk. My suzuki wasnt even almost as constrictive. I ride a lot but most my rides are short distances. If you are taking your bike everywhere get some stomp grips put on your tank, they help tremendously. Ive learned how to sit but I still get caught every now and again when I have a passenger or from the unexpected pot hole.

for the first month or so, riding the F4i, I busted my trunk and especially my balls. The worst was when you have a passenger and you brake suddenly, and she slides over you pushing your jewels into the tank. Coming off the bike, I would start walking like John Wayne. Now i learnt how to sit better on the seat. Its a mixture of sitting slightly more towards the rear plus stabilising your position so that you barely move at all with the unexpected potholes.

the trunk takes a lot of abuse, but you don't really notice. it's not as sensitive. When you nail your balls you really feel it.

I agree with you indasoul. I is always on my leg and it is very annoying. I feel like girls love it at lights though. They love watching me adjust.

everytime I ride, I feel like Im sitting on the boys, and I have to keep adjusting at every light, I thought maybe my riding pants
were just to tight, but looks like Im not the only one feeling a little cramped

Put another tally up for an adjuster. I've 'nad'ed myself more than a few times either braking too hard, releasing the clutch too fast, or hittin' bumps in the road. The boys don't appreciate it too much, so I've learned to sit back a bit more and use my foot pegs more when going over potholes and bumps.
