I rode to Cadwell Park (and back) on Sunday from Norwich on the Falco with no thought whatsoever to the seats comfiness. Around 200 mile round trip.

Interested that the newer seats mabe softer then the older ones, I've ridden to the Algarve and back with a new seat, and to San Marino and back with an old seat (cut down as well, so even less foam), both without arse related issues.

My Fazer 600 has a squashy seat and that can give me anything from a numb arse to nappy rash after a long day in the saddle.

Wierd, innit.

perhaps you should change your incontinence pads more often to avoid the nappy rash - or should we bribe debz into using drapolene on you more often?


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
