Two of the most uncomfortable bikes I've ridden are the Ducati 1098 and the Aprilia RSV.

The S10000RR is WAY more comfortable in comparison. After a week of commuting on the S1 I found myself getting used to the position and felt like my body was adjusting.

Week two I could handle a 4 hour ride, when initially, a half hour started to piss me off.

Now I wonder if I could get used to something as extreme as a 1098, I think probably.
