What seat mods are there?

CirclesCenter · July 30, 2006, 10:27:10 PM

Ok, my seat is going to get SOMETHING done to it.

I've had it with this evil little shaZam!. It hates me, it hates my butt.

BTW what cruel bastard designed it? I mean WTF was he thinking? Was it his first seat ever? How did this get through the pipes into the consumer market?

Most of all WTF?

So, in order of cost (cheapest first, cause I'm a poor college kid LOL) what in heck can I do about this evil monstrosity on my bike?

-Because I don't have anything constructive to say.

I have no problems with the seat, I've spent a few days of full riding & my butts been fine.

So either you're all a pack of pussies or I've got an iron butt

Ow, I don't know what 400+ pounds translates to, but I'm sure it's painful.

Like 500 bucks?

Damn....

Little out of my price range (okay a lot out of my price range.)

CirclesCenter · July 31, 2006, 02:13:27 AM

I was poking around and face planted into this.

Being as I don't need to lower it I could cram like 3 of those gel thingies in there.

But I don't feel very confident doing it.

Don't think so...

I was just suggesting a solution to CirclesCenter's pain in the butt problem.

Stephen072774 · July 31, 2006, 02:58:33 PM

ride my drz for an hour, i miss that comfy GS seat

Lukewarm Wilson · July 31, 2006, 03:16:01 PM

just try a sheep skin seat cover I have one for my GS although I dont usually use it because I find the seat just fine but on my last bike which was like sitting on a fence post it worked wonders for that and allowed me about an extra hour on the seat

Oh ok it's probably Nick then.

+1 on lukewarms suggestion for a sheepskin seat cover.

Easiest solution.... Put on some weight... I'm 205 and I've got no problems.

lol. I have never done a stand up before. I've stopped doing wheelies lately too. They got boring after a few weeks.
