    Question for all you experienced racers out there. Ive been given mixed advice about the issue of body positioning under braking.

    Atm, on the zxr im finding my nuts regularly interacting with the back of the tank in too intimate and regular a fashion. this is not agreeable to me, particulary as I have just come off the back of a serious injury involving testicular rupture as a result of such interaction at high speed.

    What are the suggestions? are there any tank grips or seat grips that people use?

    stomp grip works a treat or a cheap Chinese own brand (work just as well).

    Believe me, I rode with one of those just after I got outta hospital. The most uncomfortable experience ever. As for boners, I have one whenever I ride, and it hasn't saved me hehe

    Welcome to the club Russky
    The design of the bikes over the last 20 odd years + guarantees the BOYS a snug fit.
    Not always the most comfortable position and to be honest have no idea how to overcome it.

    ride with your bum back against the rear of the riders seat and use your feet on the pegs and knees against the tank

    probably true, but i think the forward feet position may be something to do with it.
