Default Nightster seat blues solved. $10

12 inch inner tube from Ace hardware. Hardly any air is needed for an excellent ride. I'll be riding it back to ky tomorrow.

Okay, I'll bite. What did you do with the inner tube, and do you have pics?

Please don't tell me you made a poor man's hemorrhoid cushion and that you're sitting on it while riding.

LOL! I'm thinking that's EXACTLY what he did! However, nobody sees it when he's riding, and when he's not, it won't be obvious what it's for! Unless it's left on the seat! It certainly beats the expense and obvious Pro Pad, and especially the sheepskin pads! My opinion? Hell, if it WORKS, it's cool!

How do you keep it on? My butt hurts on that 1200n seat so bad I want to pull over after an hour? What seats have people switched to?

at least take a break every tank full or 100 miles. I admit the stock seat isn't all that comfortable but I can't say it bothers me. Maybe my ass is just tougher than the rest of you pansies

I thought refueling WAS a break! I shouldn't be talking too much, though...I have a pretty comfortable Reach seat on my low. I'm thinkin' that maybe the Reach Solo seat wouldn't look that bad on a Nightster?

To whomever is interested...C&C seats makes some pretty comfortable, low profile, frame-hugging seats. And Mean City Cycles can improve a current stock seat tremendously. Let's not forget Mustang and Corbin. But NONE of these seat improvements costs only $10 either!
