Well, I picked up my new FZ6 (05, stupid low mileage on the clock) and it runs like a dream. For my first 600 it's a beaut. I'll be getting many many many miles on this.
But the wife...
Although I thought the ride was pretty plush compared to my old GPZ 500s, she thought it was harder. The seat shape is an improvement for her, but it's just too firm. So I'm in need of advice already.
I must point out a few things first -
1. We are looking to buy a GIVI topbox and backrest to help the rear seating.
2. My wife has a persistent issue with lower back pain, managed more or less with lots of painkillers. At the moment it's pretty inflamed, so this may have affected her judgement during a 6 mile test run.
3. We have tried the Airhawk cushion - pile of crap in our experience. (obviously YMMV, but please don't suggest these.
What options do I have to make the seat softer, yet retain the same shape to some degree? Is there a gel version, or an addon cushion you could recommend? ny help would be appreciated.
