I am not looking to start another who makes the best seat thread , but do have a dilema. Every ones butt is individual and what works for you may not work for someone else , so lets not start a debate about who makes the best after market seat, please.
My bike is a 1985 R80,
stock seat foam was pretty dead after all these years so I called Corbin and had them make me a Two Up Touring seat, it does not work for me.
Sent my OEM seat to Sargent, had them re-foam it with their super foam and widen the riders section an inch in the rear, it's ok , but just ok.
After 150 miles my old kiester is complaining and by 200 miles I am done in.
I am considering having the Daylong folks , (you know the ones who make those tractor style looking seats)make one for me. ( they sure are nice on the telephone)
But it's an expensive proposition for a retired guy on a tight budget.
So I was wondering is there is anyone out there within say 150 miles of Winston Salem , NC. who has a Daylong and is willing to let me at least sit on the thing for a bit so I can see if it is a possible fit for me.
Call me @ 336 624 1810 , and let's get together real soon.
Thanks, Doug
