The post about a 300-400 mile ride is on the right track, but even 150-200mi would do the job. What is one of these like to ride for several hours? Include some time on the superslab & some on the backroads. It may not be exciting, but face it, most of us are going to have to ride some distance to a track/really great section of road, and the interstates will be involved. After an hour on the freeway, can you still walk, how is the pressure on the hands/forearms? etc.
Lets see how these bikes are to RIDE, not benchrace. Let's not have just another track shootout like all the other mags.
