    Sheepskin vs. New Seat?

    I'm wondering if a sheepskin(along w/ the: lowering-back-end-of-front-seat mod, (already done here)) may be a good, easy/less expensive, way to get a more comfy ride, for those of us having any of the monkey butt issue that's been talked about a bit now... i.e. chaffing, seat angle, riding up...
