You Don’t Have to Ride a Rack (http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/howto/street_savvy/122_1305_making_the_bike_fit/)Comfort, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. It's all about what you like. This soft science we call ergonomics describes the bike/rider interface, and is determined by a wide range of variables starting with bike layout. High handlebars or low clip-ons; footpegs close to the seat or far away; a saddle built for three weightlifters or insufficient for a gymnast-you'll find a broad spectrum across motorcycling. They all are made to support the human body and provide a platform for control and comfort, but the almost uncountable variables of bike and rider make a perfect fit fairly rare.
