Don't you worry, I need to start exercising to get my girlish figure back too.

think of this way, it is a great motivation to keep and stay in shape. I sure do need motivations. lol.

Its good to stay in shape.

You can totally do it! I bought my 1299 about 2.5 months ago and in down 25lbs. I told myself I would not go to the track unless I get down in weight. Plus they don't make race suits for fat guys like me. Need 10 more and I'll be happy. Track day in late July or early August.

This is exactly the right attitude. A lot of perceived comfort is down to the rider's fitness, strength and posture.

I already ran a lot to keep fit but bought a racing bicycle to help with my posture and core strength. 100 miles on 25mm tyres and a razor blade saddle over potholed roads is boneshaking and exhausting. Jump on the Panigale after that and it feels like a magic carpet. And twisting the throttle to get up hills is a lot easier than pumping those chicken legs!

After a couple of trackdays early in the year on he trumpet and a few spirited rd rides on on the Pani I concluded my triceps and lats weren't up to much. As a result I focused on those area in the gym. The result is things hurt less after a ride or trackday!

Squats would be one of the best exercises.

You rode it an hour and a half? That's pretty tough in my book. I've had about enough after half that.

This is encouraging thanks all for the comments. I don't want to spoil a good looking bike with a fat butt!!!!
Cycling would be great but where I live is hills in every direction!
I went to Scotland couple weeks ago, left at 06.30 and arrived at 17.00 that wasn't too bad on a multi but the boneshaker is avoid description of the Panigale.
Didn't realise I'd had the bike a year only done 2,000 miles��
Good to see another female here twistedracer��
