    Re: Seat options

    I am also a member of the heavy brigade and Tony but a higher density foam where he thought it should go and think it was 65 all in

    The furthest ive done is 200 miles since and it appears ok although i always fit my bit of sheepskin rug if im going a long way

    I got mine off ebay, theres a few specialist firms but I found them dear, you just have to make sure its been tanned or something like that? so it doesn't go hard in the rain,

    another good thing is the airhawk , but again, I found them dear, I got a putnams stadium seat instead, not as pretty but works,,,,anyway, when your arse is on it , you cant see it,,,, (as little as possible air in it so your comfy but not rocking about is the way)
    the putnams wont last like an airhawk, but I did 15,000 mile on it so for around a tenner (or was then) it was ok,

    I did a 1800mle trip to Spain and back last year and all I did was buy a 2nd hand sheep skin rug off ebay for about £5 and an air pillow from the 99p shop. Was an excellent ride and my mates were all jealous as they fidgeted and wriggled trying to get comfy. But I do have a spare seat I want to get modded

    Guys.......no need to get your OEM seat modded or buy an aftermarket seat.

    Best (and easiest) solution that works perfectly is just a pair of gel seated Cycling shorts under your leathers.

    Works a treat........and If I'm doing a 'decent run' that's what I use.
