Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone had 'made' their own seat? I find the stock seat on my 1100 to be uncomfortable after a couple of hours so I'd like to do something about it. Mrs DA suggested wearing padded cycling shorts, but I fear I'd look like I was wearing an adult nappy.
I can't really afford to have a custom seat made and I don't want to use something like an Airhawk if it increases my height as I already get wind blast above the screen. I have got a small Thermorest which I fastened to the seat, but this raises my head into the slipstream and increases buffeting.
What I'm thinking is that if someone could recommend a specific type of foam (like 'memory foam') or some type of gel insert then I could remove the existing foam and re-cover the seat in some nicer material than the vinyl.
Suggestions, opinions and mickey taking welcome!
