Seat sweat
It is great when we leave for a ride in the morning but come around noon with the rising temps, it is like riding in an oven here in AZ. It is not even hot yet here too! The seats on our '11 Limited are comfortable as can be, but the engine and sun heat us up a lot. And when we get off the bike after a long ride, it can look like we peed our pants from all the sweating. We don't mind the shirt sweat that much, the air flow cools that down.
Does anyone have any good suggestions of how to try and keep our seats cooler or improve air flow to help prevent sweating so much? I am looking at getting a heat shield but that will only help so much.

I have had a lot of success with the circulator seat pad. For me it really helps. I am pretty sure the part number is the same in the U.S.

A lot of IBA riders use beaded seats from www.beadrider.com. I bought one a week ago, did 300 miles and returned it. Definitely helped circulate cool air, but riding on beads not comfortable to me. They take returns within 30 days of purchase so not much risk if you want to give them a try.
