|  Alaska Leather sheepskin pad They call it the ButtPad, Link Here. Has anyone put of these on a C50? The web site's sizing chart for a Volusia sez medium or large will fit. Just hoping to learn from someone else's experience.

| I have the large and it is a bit large for the seat. I have part of it tucked under the rider pillion and it still covers the seat and overlaps onto the tank. It does seem to help and once I put it on I only take it off if I know it's going to rain while the bike is parked outside at work or to wash the bike. I will be getting a Mustang seat in a few days and I don't know if it will work w/ it. If it doesn't I may sell it if you are looking for one. So...not to hijack your thread but anyone out there w/ a Mustang AND a sheepskin buttpad do they work together or what ???

| I have used a ButtBuffer as a passenger which works well & I think is a little more stylish. With my Corbin seat I don't need anything. Here's the link if you are interested. http://www.buttbuffer.com/ |

| Mod for Alaska Sheepskin butt pad I did not like running the elastic web under the seat so I used a swival snaphook with 3/4 loop, male BSR 34 buckle and 2 each 3/4 slides on a 1' piece of 70E 3/4 elastic web. Holds the seat perfectly, clips on to the metal loops of the passenger pegs. Clean, quick to install, quick to remove completely. Total cost is under $ 3.00. I have all the stuff in stock so I can help anyone who wants to make the modification. I'll also stop in to Alaska Sheepskin the next time I go by and show them the mod. They should offer it. Clint
