Many riders, especially long distance touring and highway riders, need comfort as a major factor. And that's why the Pulsar F250 has been marketed as a bike which makes quite a good ride out of it, with its ergonomics and features. In reality, however, real world experience often does not match up to the marketing claims. Long distance ability of a bike depends on factors such as seat comfort, riding position, vibrations at highway speeds and fuel tank range. The F250's comfort has some riders swearing by it, and others decrying it for long trips. The debate often carries over to comparing the bike to other bikes in the segment, and to discussing what could be done to make the bike more comfortable. This is a particularly topical subject for those riders trying to decide whether the F250 could be a daily commuter and a weekend tourer.
