Default My Nuts Are Aching

So I went for my first ride today and WOW that bike is fast. Everything is perfect on the bike except for the fact that my testicular region kept ridin the tank. I tried sitting up and down again but nothing. I tried moving to the back of the seat but my jeans made it even worse. My buddy says that ill get used to it but I was wondering if any of you have the same problem?

Here is me on Ninja

TMI!!!! But seriously, my nether region sometimes falls asleep, not sure there is a cure. I stand up on the pegs while riding, but then again I have the kind of bike where that looks normal to do.

Read the DIY section: There is a "How To" shave your seat. The 03-04 ZX6RR/ 636 are notorious for slamming the jewels against the tank. I shaved the seat on mine and it has made a world of difference.

haha. big improvement on the 05/06 seats. i gutted my seat altogether, and beleive it or not, it is SO comfortable. you sorta wrap around the gas tank and it feels like you are sitting on the frame.. but i also dont ride my bike much, except for the track and the occasional ride to bike nights or work or whatnot.. but none the less, i agree, shave your seat. or have an upholstery shop. WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. you wont regret it thats for sure.
