This seat kills after an hour riding. A real pain in the rr's. Any good suggestions on what to do either aftermarket or cushion?

For day long comfort, nothing comes close to the Russell Day Long saddle. I've tried just about all major custom seats and have settled on Russell.. www.day-long.com

Before you spend hundreds on a new seat, Go to Ikea and get a sheepskin.

I'm sure Corbin and RDL are great. I sent mine off to Bill Mayer and had it rebuilt. I've been in it for 10 hrs straight and although I had body ache, it wasn't in me arse. I think w/ these premium saddles it's about price. Lot's of good words for all three of these on this forum. Never heard of Saddlemen.

Rick Mayer is another good option. Rick has always been a great guy to me. He has also finished the IBR, he knows a thing or two about building a good saddle.

When Rich's here in Washington added a gel to mine, they told me the cut out some tab in the pan that may of added some discomfort to the tail-bone area. The added gel with only a description of me wanting a reduction in tailbone fatigue. It is spot on perfect for me and as comfy as can be. It was only $175.
