No cant say i do have that problem,

Although i have a tendency to ride with my knees pointing out 90 degrees from the bike (i dont know why), so a couple of times i have bashed my nuts on the tank under emergency braking Shocked.

Sit however you are most comfortable, just make sure you grip the tank with your thighs, that will stop immense testicular pain and will give you better control over your bike and reduce fatigue on your arms...

My experience of the gt125 is that its a sitting upright style bike, like your sat in a chair with a tank between your legs and I'm six foot and found it a small bike.

Still if your sitting back you should squat down a bit, i.e the flying fetus try moving your feet a bit on the pegs.

Racer crouch and all that.
