Default Looking for some comfort ...saddle swap?

2002 F4i with a two piece saddle now..has an under seat light kit.

I can not spend more than a couple of hours on this bike before my *** gets terminal Monkey Butt...I am kind of thin and boney but this is silly....Does anyone have an extra comfortable seat/tail section they've swapped out...? What is the way to 'fix' this issue? The split seat is like sitting on a steel plank. It is great at the track, however...and I'd like to perhaps keep it available to swap on for track days, but for the most part I want to be able to ride more than an hour without starting the cheek to cheek dance on that nasty hard slick saddle I have now.... Suggestions? Banana seat gathering dust in your garage? Sell it to me cheap...

It shouldn't be that uncomfortable. The 13 year old foam may have just seen better days.

Perhaps have it re-foamed and possibly recovered. You may want to even add a gel pack to make it extra soft. You can do it yourself if your crafty and have access to good upholstery supplies.
