Sore butt and tired....

[Habib]

A couple of questions for the collective. First my sore butt, I ride solo and the banana seat that came on my 2010 RS is just not comfortable. Any recommendations on a replacement seat (saddle) that is long ride easy on the cheeks?

Number two...is there a tow able small one room teardrop type trailer (not pop up tent kind) a Spyder could pull that would give a comfortable nights sleep out of the weather and offer some extra space for the stove, coffee pot and cooler?

Thanks.

Ultimate produces a great seat for the RS. :thumbup:
You might want to contact this guy: he has been developing this unit:

Is this the sort of thing that you're looking for?

Maybe a gel seat insert?

Motorcycle Dave sells a gel/foam pad insert for the RS seat. I put one in my RT seat and have never used my AirHawk air cushion since.

Lots of choices on seats. I'm a big fan of the Russell seats. Can't help on the trailer

I put a BRP Comfort seat on my '08 GS as the original seat was painful after a while.

This improved things a lot but I still got sore buttitis after a few hours.

I then bought an Airhawk R cruiser air pad & put it on the Comfort seat.

That solved all my discomfort problems. Not a trace of a sore butt on a recent 7 day trip.
