I have these.. keeps your butt from sweating and the sweat causes a bunch of other problems.. Have had them for nearly 7500 miles with no sweat on my butt.. a lot cheaper than changing seats..

Could your backrest be set too far forward and be causing you to sit up on the tank and then the dreaded MB?

Get a Mustang seat. No more monkey butt. First thing that gets changed out on any new bike for me is the seat. Tried Corbin and Russell but found the Mustang more to my liking.

In addition to the "underwear" that wicks away moisture, I have found that those "straps" that hook to your pants, at the bottom of the legs, and under your boot, do keep your jeans, or other long pants, from riding up your crotch; they work well. And, it you are stopped at a traffic light, just stand up and the elastic pulls your pants back into place.

Maybe its the knowledge and fear of what that bike costs vs scratching it.

Also, one of my wife's favorite activities is searching for gray hairs. I tell her since she's the one that causes them she can have them back. Others on here say it's not gray, it's chrome so it's an upgrade.
Wife and I LOL'ed hard at this!
