The technology of comfort

Article Abstract:

Motorcycle seats that tilt forward are understandable on racing bikes, but they make no sense on street bikes. The 1976 Honda CB550K has a comfortable seat, which makes riding a pleasure, but the new Ducati 900SS is uncomfortable. Passenger seats are also important.
