    The problem i faced on a continuos riding of an hour or so (without break) i start to feel back pain (can road be culprit )

    I am looking for any solution as because of the problem i might not be able to join any G2Gs which i strongly wish once in a lifetime atleast !

    I drive a 2 year old honda unicorn done 7500 kms just !

    Any suggestion or tips ?
    Regular breaks are needed when ur going for a ride also to keep yourself well hydrated at all times...start taking short rides so that you get used to go on rides...and also yes...roads are one of the culprits that cause a major damage

    Feel free to pm anyone who is active as mostly people are active on what's app...

        Just keep riding & it should heal after few times. Its the same kind of pain how you get after the first day in Gym. You have to continue doing it..

This trip is being planned with a friend with similar riding style. Will keep in mind about avoiding road racing and speed control.

            Your riding style, posture and experience plays part in answering your question.

            Like Rachit said its the just keep on riding, If you still feel the pain I recommend see a Doctor and get your checked...

            You can also your pine support belts available in market

                      Hi Guys

                      We at xBhp Delhi are having a G2G on the 10th of May to collect funds to help out the people of Nepal through long term xBhpian and Biker, Tilak Soni. It would be great if bikers from your city could come together and contribute towards this noble cause. Details of what we are planning in Delhi can be found in this thread - http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/xbhp-off...ke-2015-a.html

                      Thanks a lot

                          Thank you [MENTION=61439]TranquilRage[/MENTION] I tried and strangely can't find a cruiser type handle for RE...Any recommendation for anyone will help.
