I have been spending a lot of time hanging of ladders painting the outside of my house.

That being said....Devilsyam does lowering plates for the Gen2 & if you lowered the bike you could then get a cushion.

Ive only just tried my new "Airhawk cruiser r" seat cushion & to be perfectly honest i dont think it is for me personally....ok so it relieved any pain on the tail bone but when i was going fast into corners i was moving about on it as it is an unstable platform which for quick riding was a little unnerving...perhaps ive got it too much inflated.........i might sell it now & just accept that ill be in a bit of pain, so if you're interested i could do you a good deal.

But there's so many bikes out there & i dont know whether lowering plates & a cushion would quite cut it for you really.

Last year when I brought the bike down from Scotland to Spain I was in the saddle one day for 17 hours. I was a bit stiff getting off the bike but a good hot bath sorted that out.
I went to see a doc today and she reckons I have a ruptured MIdeate ligement so looks like the bike will stay in the garage for a few months. I have afew projects I need to do on it anyway, really is too hot to ride out here now during the day.
