Maybe you could find one of those beaded seat covers for your bike.

STP has one! He thinks it is the bomb diggy!










Actually either get soem natural padding or a gel seat.
My arse was hurt last weekend TOO! 720 miles in two days. First 200 hundred were great..then it was pain.

You could buy a cruiser or gain weight.

Both worked for me.

I usually where bicycle shorts under my riding pants when I'm out for a longer ride. The additional padding helps a bit ... plus the fact that my GSX has a pretty comfortable seat to begin with.

try this company.... www.sargentcycle.com . They make different seats and in fact I just ordered a new seat for the Wee-Strom.

Also try www.buttbuffer.com . Ask for Peter,, he helped me with all my butt buffing needs. They make a gel pad that as Pete stated I swear by. And I do. It is the best $100.00 I have spent thus far. It extended my ride time from two to three hours to being able to ride for six to nine hours before feeling the same on the LC. On the Wee-Strom it has doubled the amount of time I can stand sitting on the stock seat.
