Badhardtail Posted September 28, 2009 Share #3 Posted September 28, 2009 Hi Goofeychuck, I use an Air Hawk. I keep it in the tour pak and after a couple of hundred miles I'll inflate it and I'm good to go for a long way more. Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigatcsi Posted September 29, 2009 Share #8 Posted September 29, 2009 Rick Butler seat mod is all it took to make me comfortable. 750 mile day with no sore butt. The only problem I have with my 2nd Gen Venture seat, is the Vinyl makes my backside sweat. craigr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yama Mama Posted September 29, 2009 Share #13 Posted September 29, 2009 Obviously everyone has different butts and different comfort zones. I think Ron and I have ridden for so many years we no longer have feeling down there. We have the stock seat on our 99 RSV and just recently added a sheepskin. We rode 1200 miles in 2 days to Sturgis, and we really had no complaints other than being tired and that was mainly from the crosswinds. I hope you find the comfort seat for your self.

jemorrisonjr Posted September 29, 2009 Share #14 Posted September 29, 2009 I went from the stock seat to a mustang seat (wife had a gel cushion on the last 2 bikes) now I put on the Venture Pillow tops and WOW very nice... The wife has stopped using the gel seat...she wont sell it YET..... It is correct that everyone will have a different answer to this one... Heck I didnt think the stock seat was all that bad, I did 950 miles in 14 hours on it...But now I'm ready for some LONG riding....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBeaver Posted September 29, 2009 Share #15 Posted September 29, 2009 +1 for the stock pillow tops and everyone's rumpus being a wee bit different. In 14 days August I rode ~4500 miles Riding every day; some were real short and some were longer (some days were 600-700 while some were just puttering around ~50 max). My last 4 days were ~500 miles each day and on the last day I really started to feel my tailbone. (But, no pun intended; I slipped and bounced down a few stairs on my rumpus which I think contributed to the tailbone issue). Your seat obviously is not doing what you want it to do; lots of good advice here and definitely talk to Rick Butler at some point and he can probably provide some good direction. Good luck!
