Personally I don't have any room in the front to fit a banana, but if you do, and feel the need.........by all means, go for it.LOL

Not sure that the question about the Airhawk got answered. Yes, it has a tube you can use to inflate the cushion. The BEST advice I got was to run it with less air than I had in it. Second, I use bicycle shorts (the padded kind), cutting the rubber out of the legs to make it comfortable. Also, I use MonkeyButt powder on "the boys" and works like a charm. I also wear "Wickers" underwear that wicks the sweat away.

One other note....my Sundowner is vinyl......pleather........

From 03/1998 - 08/2002 rode 130,000 miles. Tried everything; sheepskin, cushions, gel under the seat, etc, etc and ended up in hot weather with no shorts and riding on a $15 set of beads. The air circulated under my butt. When the fall arrives if you try this your butt gets chilled.

[QUOTE=Captain Itch;8559390]Corn starch ,and all of the above work well..But "no pun intended" once you have an advanced case and the boys are unfire you need to call in the big guns you need ...

For jock itch you can't beat Zeasorb AF. Way more absorbant than any spray.

Get a sheepskin for your seat. I was skeptical at first but for over a month now, we have had temps in the high 90's and several days over 100. We rode yesterday, the temp was 102 but my seat was dry as a bone. No more damp butt and no more monkey but!!
+ one on the sheepskin!

Sheepskin covers help with the sweating... and believe it or not, Vaseline works wonders down there. No more raw meat :-)
