RE: my a$$ hurts
i work at a stealership and we have a corbin seat on a spyder here in the showroom and it is the most comfortable thing ever. dunno how it would feel on a sportbike though.. maybe too homely... fall asleep riding.. lol

You could go with the Corbin seat, it looks very nice. Or, you could just buy a pair of cycling shorts (like bicycling) for $10and wear them on long rides. I do this for anything above 100 miles and it's served me quite well. Some have a thick pad so you should compare with others to get the best deal.

it's about the same shape just a little thicker. but it had a bad slope to it. when I tried to sit on the back I kept sliding right up to the front of the seat. like at a angle the whole time. I personally didnt like it so i'm just going to get my stock on re-padded.

I added gel pads to my seat, pull the staples out and peel the cover and lay the gel pad down and then pull cover back over and staple it back on, takes about 5 mins to do and seat feels thousand times better.. paid 10 bucks for gel pads, enough to do front and back seat.

I just bought a corbin seat for my 03 600rr. They're nice and all but not worth the money. I'd rather have my stock seat re-padded.

I have a mate with one and sure its ok ....but not worth it because you will still suffer sitting on it eventually ...
Go to a good upholstery business and get them to do the best comfy re-cover and fill it with nice filling
plus they can if you want , shape them if you want to suit your bum and riding position..Will cost a fraction of a Corbin..
