Jono its very comfy for me I'm 6ft 4in tall, no one has been on the back yet and the seat is wide for the pillion. Power is good pulling in 6th to 100 mph + with ease .The bars are wide and one thing I'm changing is the leavers the brake one is adjustable but the clutch is not = too far out .All in all I'm happy with it but my busa is my first bike.
