Default Iron Butt No Longer

New here, so forgive me...

Need a new seat. My backside can't take the stock seat any longer. Ride 1up 85% of the time and don't want to lose the 1up look, but would like to be able to add passenger seat if needed. Any ideas?

There are tons of seats on the market and don't know where to start.

Thanks, in advance.

I just switched from the stock solo seat to a Le Pera Bare Bones. It doesnt look like it will be very comfotable but after a few hours seat time to build a decision I am definately glad I made the switch.

Can you still use the stock attachment for the stock rear seat on these?

You don't need a new seat for trips if you use an AirHawk cushion. Just low pressure air. Inflates with a couple of puffs. Hospital technology and easy on and off.

You should give sick saddle a try, best of both worlds. I have done 300+ day trip no problem. Needless to say my gf is happy
