I love my bike... but the seat doesn't love me. Not sure if it's the shape, the materials, the fit or what... After 2-3 hours the backs of my legs start aching and I can't get away from it, except to stop and stretch. Pressure points on the seat. I've spoken with lots of other guys running the same seats (I've tried 3 so far, but all have been off the shelf designs... Currently running a Corbin) on the same bike, with no similar complaints... It seems to be unique to me and my specific dimensions, as far as I can tell. I've done all-day rides on BMW's (K and R bikes) and cruisers without any similar issues..
So.... What I'm looking for is a LOCAL custom seat maker that I can work with to try and fix this problem. DFW area...
I'm thinking about buying a used stock seat that can be torn down and used for the pan, and having a custom seat built to address my specific issues.
I've spoken with a few "upholstery guys" and my discussions have left me less than confident. I'm looking for someone with hands on experience/specialty on motorcycle seats.
Any recommendations/shared experiences would be appreciated.
Thanks.!
