Default Numb Bum!

I went out for a ride today, done 120 miles and my back side was killing me! I was hoping it would be a bit more comfortable than it is for that sort of mileage! Anyone else have the same problem?

I get that as well - do you have an aftermarket seat?

umm, you guys could maybe harden up? heck I regularly do between 500 and 800 miles in a day on my F2, and never have an issue unless I do it several days in a row, in which case I only get cramps at night.

2-3 hours on my F2 is usually enough before I start to hurt and need a longer break (stock seat). The longest journey ive taken in one day on my F2, with only short stops, was 8 hours. The last hour was a nightmare

My biggest problem is with wedgies... once the cloth starts to ride up, it's all over.

I used to get sore nuts when riding to the point one decided to venture north towards my stomach. I put it down to spooning the tank to much. Id recommend you wear looser boxers, worked for me.

As for the seat itself I find after a hour or so of riding Its still comfortable.

I have a nice re-conditioned seat that's like a sofa, that **** rocks. As for ball issues, why don't you just try sliding back in the seat a bit for normal riding?
