I've got just over 6,000 miles on my GS and I bought it new in June. I can say that 4,500 miles of that 6K has been 2- up and prolly 100 miles of that 4,500 is 2 up on gravel!!

The key - A BETTER SEAT. We tried the bead rider and that helped, but I bought a Sargeant for both of us and now it made a world of difference. We can do a 400+ mile day where Jules was ready to UN-ass at 200 with the factory seat. As far as ergo's, she loves it and she is only 5'6".

The only negative she has mentioned lately is I added Jesse's and with the Jesse's on the bike, she cannot rest her foot like before, but it is still ok. This is what she told me last SUnday when we made a 300 mile ride.

Hope this helps....
