My behind used to get so sore on long trips that i'd lie on the petrol tank from time to time to take the pressure off my botty! Dont' need to do that now.

    I still reckon you can't go past sheepskin - few years ago our GL1000 had a piece of four by two for a seat, we had seriously no money - chopped up an old car seat cover and sewed straps on to it, tied it around the seat. Worked a treat even on my (as it was then, sigh!) skinny little arse.

    Dont laugh try it .
    Was that a wet shave or electric???
    I also have the question to ask about the regrowth.
    Do you need to be double jointed to reach your crack.

    ive found i always get a sore arse and back if ever riding a bike with a cruiser type riding position, seems to be the 'vertical back' thing
    on sportier type bikes...on problem! probably explaning why the
    owners of 250r and 650r hyosungs say they dont have this problem.
    having your feet tucked up underneath works a bit like suspension
    and having the upper torso weight over the tank lets the arms
    take some of the load.
    which is why ive always found sports tourers the most comfy i guess.
    'corban' might do a touring seat for your bike,but theyre not cheap...

    Having your arse cheeks pulled apart like they are on a sportsbike probably helps .......

    Well I stumbled in here wondering what the butt question was and now I am truly educated. Excuse me, its been fun but I have to scream now.... No offence.
