#498371 BlackRain (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 959 Butt and Tail bone started hurting after 350 miles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Went on and nice 500 mile ride today and after 350 mile my butt and tailbone started hurting. Is that normal on any seat including ED and Ultima? I have a Mustang seat and was just wondering if 350 miles is good? Want to buy a ED, but if its going to start hurting after 350 mile like the Mustang then I will just stay with it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #498375 fireman922 (User) Schrodinger's Cat - Wanted Dead & Alive Platinum Boarder Posts: 5161 Re:Butt and Tail bone started hurting after 350 miles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Some seats hurt more than others, but 350 miles starts to wear on me too. I think I try to sit too far back and it puts more pressure on the 'ol tail. I've given up on just riding nonstop all day. I stop and stretch my legs and get a drink every tank. I have a whole shelf of seats and in order of pain intensity (worst to best) they are: Dragger style Stock PCS modified Mustang E D Big Tour Wow, didn't realize I had so many. I need to have a garage sale.   Logged     Ask me about my attention deficit disorder or my pie or my cat. A dog. I have a bike. Do you like TV? I saw a rock.

I use a Pro Pad for long trips.   Logged     http://s1271.beta.photobucket.com/user/bluestar825/library/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #498387 workharddieproud (User) "HALF GUILTY, HALF INSANE" Platinum Boarder Posts: 1049 Re:Butt and Tail bone started hurting after 350 miles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Get a AIRHAWK seat cushion, I just had got back home from a 470 mile ride, no sore or hurt butt, I've had my AIRHAWK for over a year now and still love it, tell you guy's something else that most would laugh at, but, DO NOT CARRY YOUR WALLET IN YOUR BACK POCKET, it will make your hurt more, wether it'b your butt or your back.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #498391 OlDirty (User) If you are offended I'm satisfied.

Last weekend I made a 600 mile run and never stopped to think about my butt.   Logged     Have fun and ride safe. 2004 Roadie   The administrator has disabled public write access. #498401 Doc_V (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2227 Re:Butt and Tail bone started hurting after 350 miles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   workharddieproud wrote: Get a AIRHAWK seat cushion, I just had got back home from a 470 mile ride, no sore or hurt butt, I've had my AIRHAWK for over a year now and still love it, tell you guy's something else that most would laugh at, but, DO NOT CARRY YOUR WALLET IN YOUR BACK POCKET, it will make your hurt more, wether it'b your butt or your back. +1 on the Airhawk. I just picked up an Airhawk R, their latest and greatest design. It lists for $200+, but I got it for $139 shipped with a 90 day money back guarantee. I took it on a 300 mile ride last week and it was nice. I'ver ridden with it around town on shorter 30-50 mile rides and it's been great. I'm taking a 500 mile ride tomorrow and I'll let you know how it turns out. http://www.bikercushion.com/AIRHAWK-R-Seat-Cushion-p/cruiser-r.html   Logged     Last Edit: 2012/06/02 00:24 By Doc_V.   The world breaks everyone, and afterward, *some* are strong at the broken places.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #498414 MountainCruiser (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 157 Re:Butt and Tail bone started hurting after 350 miles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   fireman922 wrote: Some seats hurt more than others, but 350 miles starts to wear on me too.

I need to have a garage sale. In case you are / ever get serious about a garage sale, and consider letting that Dragger seat go, let me know. Depending on what you were asking, I'd definitely have to give it some thought and double check the finance's situation.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #498429 greenpus (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2145 Re:Butt and Tail bone started hurting after 350 miles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I bought a cheap $20 gel seat pad from Walmart to use on my Mustang. I can ride for days now   Logged     Last Edit: 2012/06/02 05:51 By greenpus.   The administrator has disabled public write access.
