Does the body adapt ? ergonomics.
Long time member of HUBB , touring rider and attendee of travelers meetings. I have been primarily a touring rider for 20+ years and have several bikes and many thousands of miles under my belt. In spite of this I am still going ask this dumb question.
It arises out of an injury which is causing me some trouble and a serious need to find the smoothest bike I can. Not a big full dresser guy , like to travel light and ride long. I have been riding my dl1000 since 2009 and am finding the vibration and position aggravates a shoulder injury. I am something of an old guy and NOT small. Recently road a Honda product with sport Ergos and felt the bike was responsive and very smooth. Trouble is the leg position was cramped and has no ability to drop the pegs sufficiently.
So the question is, does the body (legs) adjust to the cramped position quickly or does it become more aggravating over time. or point to a helpful thread.
Maybe there is a sport touring bike out there for me ?
