Went to a bike rally on the Isle of Wight last weekend. Popped out to look for a nice toilet (anyone that knows rally toilets will know why) and saw a byway sign, so followed it. Took the following pics before carrying on to Godshill to use their facilities.

Man i want a bike like that how awesome..I used to have a comfy Touratech seat, you can see it in the signature pic at the bottom. Sold it to a South African for a hundred quid when I was short of cash. Got a spare seat for my Africa Twin knocking about in the garage, must get it altered for a bit more comfort.
I managed the ride down to the Isle of Wight okay, but that's more down to my backside hardening with 11 years of my daily 100 mile commute than the plushness of the seat. Dipping my bot in vinegar and baking it in the oven did the trick. It works on conkers too I hear.

It's the hot knitting needle that will put most people off.

ive been looking at doing the cb's seat, seen these 'gel pads' you either strap to the seat or put it inside... more inside idea that interests me... or steal the king & queen seat off the GT ;)
