I tend to find the seat on a black framed falco a tad more comfotable. If you want to ride in an arm chair and don't mind what you pay i would suggest seargent seat.
Pete will be along shortly to tell about them has he has one.
Andy will be along shortly to tell you about the search function.

My saddle was expensive - but worth it
They do sometimes come up on yank evilbay - but they are expensive
Mart iirc posted up a company's details that can refurb a saddle with gel etc

Don't recall that one - but that doesn't necessarily mean I didn't.
Keith - Oldgit - had his seat re-done a year or two back - he did post up something about it on here

Tony Archer in Huddersfield comes highly recommended as a seat fixer-upper. I had my VFR seat done by him and it's great. I was intending to send the Falco rider and pillion seats to him for re-work, but getting the suspension sorted seemed to remove the problem.

Tbh andy when i used to ask a lot of questions when joining ridersite, i had just not realised the search function exsisted. Being from the dark ages aka Doncaster.
Perhaps a sticky for new members could help them find the way around the forum better and save you getting frustrated
