I am 5'11" 85kg and after my 1000mile trip round Wales my arse really hurts, I sit at the back of the seat but keep sliding forward so it stretches my skin and me arse bones need more padding!!!!!!

HELP

Hey Zeb,

As you know it can get very expensive buying a new seat...

But......

You could try my trick.

The stock seat with an aftermarket cover. I recovered my own seat, but tried different padding and sculptured shape until i found one that is personal to me.

Result is, some old sofa foam shaped to my arse, covered with a hand towel cut to shape for sturdiness then with aftermarket cover to make it look nice...

Hope that helps.

The K1600 seat is quite comfy...

I've fitted a Top Sellerie (non - gel) seat to my 2012 GTR. I see that you live near to Norwich, I am a couple of miles from Watton and you are welcome to come and have a sit on mine if it helps!
