Got a slightly sore back the other day, done 300miles (180 miles with no more than 5 minute pee and petrol stops), then 120 miles with one petrol stop).

Fine now though. Woke up today and felt I could do it again.

Wrist ache, but I think its because my winter gloves are a bit on the heavy / bulky side, just bought some new frank thomas aqua's off fleabay which I'm waiting to be delivered. Tried a pair on in a shop and they felt much lighter and comfortable so hopefully that will help.

I have noticed that my right wrist aches on long distances in very hot or in cold, damp weather, but that is only since I broke it across the joint 2 years ago. Apart from that I don't suffer any aches from riding the bike.

Anything more than 20 minutes on the bike is painful (rather than just achey) for me, at low speeds (ie in traffic) it is even worse.

My back (middle-upper), both thumbs weirdly enough although thats probably from the amount of stoppies i find myself doing , all my left leg, left hip and for some reason my right shoulder.

I get cramps in my legs every so often when pulling up to traffic lights but I never ache after a ride.

[WishayKillie]

I can sometimes get cramp in my hip, have to try and stand up on the pegs to get rid of it

If I'm out on a long run in cold weather my left knee locks up and since knackering my thumb a couple of months back it goes numb quite quickly as of late...

I have a bike that suites me so I don't ache because of the bike. I do ache with the broken bones I have picked up over the years though.

If I ride over 90/100 for extended periods (ie motorway) my neck hurts. Probably wouldn't be nearly as bad on a faired bike. I sometimes get achey knees but if I get off the bike for 5 minutes it goes away. Also this seems not to happen if i relax and sit back on the seat more.

After an hour or two my ears hurt, but this is due to crap earplugs. It's not too bad but it can be agony trying to pull my helmet off! I would much rather have this than ringing ears, however.

I've done hard physical work most of my working life...so what doesn't hurt ! Well apart from my back which seems indestructible.
On the bike i can get pains after an hour or so, but plenty of stretching beforehand always helps me. Worse thing i can do is doss then hop on the bike.
Use it or lose it is my motto.

Road bike: My right calf seizes up from riding on my toes with rear sets ... wrists hurt after 40 miles or so ... then right little finger starts to go numb.

Off Road bike: Forearms get 'pumped' if the going is rocky.
And if there are any road sections, then the bum goes numb after about 5 miles

DRZ: Numb bum after 20 miles or so...but riding standing up for a bit eluviates that somewhat.

XR: Ditto...but the saddle's comfier so I numbness doesn't occur for about 40 miles or so.

Superfour: A slight pumping in my right forearm after about 70 miles, especially under braking. I think I did more damage in my little accident last year on my CG than I thought I did, as I didn't suffer too much beforehand and body positioning...what little I can change of it on the CB, doesn't make any difference.

NC30: Been a while since I rode this, but when I did, felt really cramped - neck, shoulders and wrists went after about 20 miles or so. Terrible in town, but bearable as speeds increase past 60mph.

[Seb]

I got numb hands and after a 100 miles or so a dead backside on the ZZR, the Futura was good for 200 mile stints with no aches at all whereas on the SP1 my knees start giving in after about 50 miles or so. Longer rides or rough surfaces on the Honda have made my arms and shoulders ache before now too.

Lower back, upper arms and shoulders. Sometimes I get a tingle feeling in my legs too.

[DEN MONKEY]

not much really but i think thats a blessing for being a short ass on a sports bike Feels like a tourer I have so much room

Although a few hours on the bike can make my right knee a bit iffy but that's just from years of soccer or football as you queers call it.

Oh flippin' heck, if I wrote a list of where I ache, it'd take best part of the day!

Maybe I should list where it doesn't hurt...

I get an ache in my right wrist, tingling fingers from the vibration and cramp in my legs if I ride for too long... I just try and keep moving and adjust my riding position as often as I can which usually helps a bit.

[Hetzer]

Occasional cramp-attack in a hip, that was about it (at age 48, so nothing to complain about).

i've done nearly 200 miles constant (bar fuel stops) and had no aches to speak off other than just being tired.

god bless the comfortable sports bike that is the CBR600F

now and again though my elbow seems to ache a bit but thats not really related to the bike, just one of my quirks.

I get back pain whether driving or riding any distance at all. Since I had a car crash last year, it's been ten times worse.
