I think the others were trying to copy the Road Dog.

Looks like you shot a bear and draped his skin over the seat....he he[8D]
Sheepskin covers look ugly IMO but they do help with numb bum syndrome
I just sit on a piece of closed cell foam 10mm thick - works well for me.[X(]
(but then I have an old bum !)

You don't ride far enough to get a numb bum, yubugger ![X(]
Gotta do over 300 k's before it starts to ache...........
I often do twice that distance, so don't hang the cardboard man shyte on me...............
I'm actually considering recovering me seat with extra padding - only problem is, you sit that extra 10mm or so higher, and are more exposed to the wind........doesn't sound like much, but it does make a difference.
I'll see - need to find some correct colour seatcovering first...................
Maybe use Roo................[X(][:-]
