Tell us or reply via private message if you would prefer.I would like to pose a question regarding seat pads/cushions...I have a stock 2001 solo seat on my 800. It looks very comfortable and for the first 15 or 20 miles it feels okay..BUT...after that it really starts to make my butt ache...I usually do a round trip of about 80 miles or so going out to my research farm and it gets really uncomfortable about halfway there and back. My wife is not going to let me spend the money on a Corbin or other aftermarket seat, so I was wondering if anyone can recommend a seat pad/cushion that would help alleviate the issue. I am not a small guy (6 ft - 230lb), but I have an old man flat butt. My budget is $100 or less......anyone?
Thanks.

- August 14, 2016, 14:25:41 PM I had this really sweet lady in Ohio send me a pro pad for Christmas last year, because she bought one for her husband and he liked it and she thought I am a nice guy so she bought me one also and I used it my whole trip and it was great.

lets the air flow under your butt and keeps you off a wet seat in a rain......lots of advantages.....
I am a normal size person 5'11" and 245 lbs.......and works really well for me, also my seat is custom done for my nice butt....130 km is a nice easy ride and never even know you were out of your recliner.....
