Mate, there are PLENTY of places in Sydney where you can get an arse massage!!!

Seriously though, I find the stock *rider's* seat to be the best stock one I have ever sat on. Pitty they stopped there and then got dickhead to design the stock passenger seat!

Yeh, isnt that where they say "love you long time" and anyway thats even more expensive

Hadnt really given the stock seat much of a go, might do so,
would swap around a bit if it wasnt for that dumb bolt.

I believe these can keep you in the saddle longer than stock, personally I would not describe them as ideal.

On a long trip these covers just add to the comfort level and keeps your "buttbones" from burning.
