    Long Distance Riding on a Royal Enfield - managing the related aches and pains.
    I'm often asked about how I manage aches and pains associated with a long motorcycle ride. Riding a bike for several hours can cause a lot of strain on your neck, back and lower body and if you ride a motorcycle that transfers significant vibrations (like the Royal Enfield Thunderbird) this can be even more intense.
    In this video, I share with you a few simple things that I do to manage and reduce the aches and pains that I experience when I try to cover a long distance on my motorcycle on the same day. It's mostly common sense, but it's something I'm asked quite often, so I thought I would just share the information here in video form.
    Hope you find it useful.

    One thing I found was wearing earplugs REALLY cuts my fatigue. Strangely prolonged noise tires me. That was in New Zealand. I'm not sure how safe that tip is here where you need all your senses while riding. Yup, I have 5-10 minute breaks every 100-150km, usually to drink water and pee. Short breaks then a longer 30min lunch break. More Masala chai. I usually try ride max of 600km a day - at 500km I'm getting agitated and tired haha. Man, Cow's are seriously dangerous at night, especially the black ones 😵

      exactly !! Ear plugs are the real magic !!! Sound , light intensity (reduced by using a darker/blue tint visor) greatly affects your ride ! :)

    I did a ride from mangalore to mumbai in 1995 on NH17. Did it in 2 days on a Bajaj enduro 2 stroke. Those days there wasnt a helmet rule so I didnt wear a helmet. But I padded my seat by 2 inches which helped a lot.

    karl has nailed it there, earplugs are the best thing to reduce fatige on a long ride. next best thing is to have your seat reupholsterd with better quality foam. i recover mine with a thin layer of aircraft insulation foam over the original if it's already good quality, simple to do with a bit of practice & A heavy duty staple gun.

    What pants do u wear, please?
    Besides the bike of choice, I liked your video and information given to us. I’m leaving day after tomorrow to Mumbai from Bangalore. My first long solo ride on this bike (duke 390 2016) so I’ll stop over in Goa for a night. Your info was very useful.

    What do you do to reduce wind noise. I use earplugs and that itself is a huge discomfort. But the discomfort is better when I compare it with the headache and whistling noise while riding.

    So your miles from anywhere and it's raining, try a pair of vinyl gloves and some polythene bags worn before you put on those leaky gloves and boots might help take them with you they take up little space. Fitting an inexpensive pair of handguards keeps most of the weather off your hands. If your visor steams up try smearing both sides with shaving gel or dandruff shampoo ( it must be dandruff shampoo) from time to time, leave it on for 30 minutes or so then polish it off. All the best ;-)
