| Hi Kruser,
if you are getting a saw bum on longer rides try a Air hawke seat about 250 bucks my wife had one when we rode to melbourne and back to Perth.
Or a cheaper way is to get a pair of lycra push bike riding pants with the padded back side wear under your riding pants their are differant size padding.
I wore a pair from Perth to Bunderberg in QLD and back and they were great.you cant see them under your riding pants arond 30 bucks. not bad

| Hi Nomad,
In our last ride, I met a guy who has it and he told me not to get it because it slides arond in corners.
Do you experience the same thing?

| Hi kruser Had no problem with airhawk sliding around as they come with straps that fit under the seat Airhawk will give you a 60 day free trial. www.airhawkguy.com.auOr you can try the bike pants they are pretty good as well NOMAD | |

| Does anyone know anything about saddleman seats? if they are any good. They have a solo quiet cheap from the States. I guess not so cheap though if you cant sit on it for long and end up having to bu a mustang anyway. | |

| Ed, Mustang seats are bloody unreal but if ya gunna spend the coin go the extra and get the backrest i guarantee you that it will be the best purchase you ever make. Corbin make some great seats but dont buy direct their service is crap and as for saddlemen i have no idea other than comments from others that they are a good seat bbut not as good as the mustang

| Harry I got a saddleman single seat since I saw you last. 250 from the US No more sore ass issues, it makes you see just how bad the stock seat is. I think I will get the mustang double seat though for when the radio wants to join | |

| Well guys after much delay my Mustang Wide Tourer with backrest has finally arrived. Only got 20k's on it today but even that felt awesome. Sits me a little further back than i'm used too but that position seems more comfortable. Will give a better report once i've been on a longer ride Aj Oh and pics will follow | |
