Hmm, R U sure about taking 19 litres with 2 bars to go - I thought the tank only held 19 litres? Or did you fill a 5 litre jerry can as well?

Yes, what were they (suzuki) thinking, when they designed this seat ? Probably a 55kg Japaness.

Thats right hammy, maybe if i rode a bit more my rear end might be accustomed to it. I think its old age though. Did alot of touring on my vf 750 when i was young. Dont think i complained once about that seat!

You blokes are f$*@)ing soft. You just need to supply a bit of your own padding Laughing
There are many instances of riders forking out big $$$ for other seats only to go back to the original.
Still comfort is an individual thing Wink
