Hey guys, I'm starting to do some longer rides lately which has been fun. My only complaint is my a$$!!. Wrists, back, legs, everything else is fine. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a more comfortable seat? And if anyone has a decently priced one for sale I would be very interested! |

Welcome! How tall are you? Baldwin makes a very thick seat which may be perfect if you are 6'4". http://www.motorbikesaddles.com/Buell%201125R%20&% 201125CR%20Seats.htm American Sportbike sells the Saddlemen. http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-c atshow/1125CRseats.html I am an big guy, I LOVE my Saddlemen Carbon seat. Saddlemen even gives you a carbon seat cover for the pillion! |

I've got the Saddleman CF that I got from American Sportbike. Worth every penny. The cutout in the middle takes the pressure off the tail bone and makes a world of difference on longer rides. You will not be disappointed. |

I'm 6'4", 34" inseam. I have the (now discontinued) Buell Select seat on my CR, +1" and comfy. I also have stock Ulysses pegs, 1" lower. I've done 800 mile days with no problems |

Anybody make one for us shorter folk? I'm tiptoeing at stop lights, which is ok, but not ideal. |

Saddleman with the nut channel is a game changer! |

The Corbin looks like the seat for you Jimustanguitar. At least it doesn't look too thick. http://www.corbin.com/buell/hdb1125.shtml |

I have a Saddlemen gel channel tech seat for sale as well. Loved it when I still had the bike. |

I went to my local motorcycle leather shop and got the name of a local guy who makes motorcycle seats. I took him an old seat I got off ebay and he remade it into a nice, thick, plush seat for under $200. I can ride all day with no seat discomfort. |
