Default Another 07 FXSTC Question

Anyone else have a problem with their azz going numb after about 45min to an hour? Maybe Im not sitting right but esp when I have my OL on the back it gets numb pretty quick then down right painful. Any suggestions? Im about 6'2", bike is mostly stock with a few cosmetic changes.

I can't say I've ever had a problem with the seat on my bike. It is by far the most comfortable seat I've ever sat on. I can ride forever and not have a single issue with my butt startin' to hurt. Obviously, though, everyone's butt is different. If you like the style of your seat and want to keep it, you sould send it off and have memory foam put in it. That should make it more comfortable. I stumbled across this website when I did a quick search on Google. They might be able to help you out. http://www.harleyseats.com/Bar_Enter...lcomes_You.htm (I haven't used this place, so I don't know anything about their quality of work.)

I agree with Live2ride . Its by far the most comfortable seat Ive ever sat on. Ive ridden on many 260+ mile local trips and Ive never got uncomfortable. I know this is a reach but you might want to try and adjust your bars. If you move them foward your entire posture will change and there may not be as much pressure on your lower back. Ive had 2 Back operations and Ive had no problems. I did however move my bars foward about 3" , it completely changed my riding position to a more comfortable levele .....for me. It may not work for you. Move em a little at a time and see how it goes.I put a black alignment mark on them so I could tell not only where they were originaly but also how far I moved them at a time.
