Seat upgrades?
Written by c172myp51 on 4/19/2010 at 12:21 pm

I think every time this topic comes up Mike mentions his beads, and I mention my
ButtBuffer pad, so here goes!
I've done a lot of miles in the past 10 months and can honestly say the stock
seat isn't that bad (but then again I was riding Jap cruisers b4, so anything's
an improvement). The only thing I've done to the seat to help on the Looooong
trips is to add the ButtBuffer pad, which was $100. For an extra 50 they'll
mount it inside the seat and, shaving foam skillfully, will adjust your seat
height at the same time.

No monkey-butt since installing the BB pad (which rests on top of the seat & is
removable).

owned these for a while, if that *isn't* the case lemme know now. Are there
good aftermarket seats out there for these bikes?
