Maybe I just have a small ass or something but my seat is good to go.

Thats some seat!!!! Bit extreme for what I was thinking of, but definitely think it would solve the problem...

I've stripped the spare seat and am waiting for quote from my cousin.. If he doesnt ring back soon I shall do it myself... Someone suggested a gel insert from a horse saddle but maybe I will just fit the whole saddle in light of the picture above!!!!

If you guys are having a competition you need to put itn on here for us foreigners to see what your like!!!! :twisted:

hey gedge, I don't know if you have worked foam before, but one of those 2 bladed electric meat carving knife is the best tool for the job. you can trim and make any shape you want. alo you can sand it with a sanding pad on a grinder....

Ta.. I've got one in the kitchen ( usually just makes a mess of the Turkey but what the hey.....)

Foam block is easier to evenly-trim if you freeze it for a while prior to cutting too...

I bought mine from Jack Nice in Walthamstowe, E17. One of the options offeredd was a "touring" saddle. The standard seat is way, way better than that on my XR, so did not ask what the touring option was (cost £75).

I'll see how I get on, and maybe enquire later.

Interesting... Do you have his phone No.? I might ask him as waiting for my cousin is proving a bit of a problem!!

yeh i just did a all day trip to st helens, have done a bunch of day long offroad trips and yeh, it isn't a goldwing seat but it's as good as any of the other DS type bikes, cept maybe the KLR but they're sofa bikes anyway so...

The Mastiff seat is hellish too - took my g/f on the back from Whaley Bridge to Buxton in the English Peak District and she was almost crying by the time we got there ... it's only about seven miles. :shock:

I've since become an expert at standing on the 'pegs on motorways - longest was thirty miles! :twisted:

Jack Nice's number 020 8520 1920.

Rode to and from the NEC on mine (around 300 miles). No problem.

Mind you, I'm a bit of a lard-arse.
