About 400 miles on my TL1000S. The key is to support your weight with your abs and keep weight off of your wrist. Also spend about $50-$60 and get your seats reupholstered. Not for bling, but for better padding. Sportbikes can easily go as far as cruisers.

When I lived in california, I use to ride an hour every day to school. I think I've ridden for 2 hours straight, but don't know how long the trip was.

Mine was around 300 some odd miles. The worst part was riding the highway back home after a great day on the backroads.
