    Default Uncomfortable seat

    I have some back issues and noticed the seat is not very comfortable on rides over an hour. Are there any aftermarket seats besides the Corbin seats?

    BRP makes a very nice one. This is the one I have and am very pleased. Don't know what your back issues are but the corban does have a back rest for the driver. None will be therapeutic however.

    Russell, and several others mentioned here will modify your seat just for you. The search feature of the forum should bring up some good hits. BRP sells their own "Comfort Seat," too. In the end, it depends on your own needs and desires. Seats are like windshields...they fit (and suit)everyone differently.

    Also...before spending a lot of money on a new seat, check out Beaded Seats, Sheepskin, and Gel packs

    I have a tail bone problem from when I broke it years ago. Also have disc problems in my neck. I find that the Airhawk works great for long trips. I am saving up for the BRP seat though.
