(-*-) Hurts real bad lol Help!!!

[NHVmaxpower]

Ok is it me? Me & my wife did 276 miles yesterday & have got to say out of all my many bikes I've had the Vmax seat is the most uncomfortable in the world. Both our butts are hurting . Is there something I can do to fix this issue? new seat maybe ? Refoam? Please help . Thanks

Sean Morley can hook you up with one of his cut down seats, they make a big difference. Get the rear seat done too, and the wife will be happy as well! I have a sportmax cut down seat which is similar to Seans, and I would never go back to a stocker. Long rides=no problem! Or you can also hit Rick up for a Maxgasser....the ultimate in comfort!!!

The seat is always one of the firsts in the never ending ( seems like to me anyway ) mods to our addiction.

^ It's definitely Not you, the Stock VMax Seat is terrible for any ride over an hour.
Sean's seat or a MaxGasser are Both Very Good Options.
I personally reshaped my stock seat and added 1" of extra padding myself.
I'm 6'1" and really like the extra height/padding, lowering it would Not work for me.
I ride a few hundred miles on a fairly regular basis and I don't have any problems with my reworked seat.

Thats my issue I am 6 ft 3 245 lbs not a lil guy lol Who is Sean & where do I see the seats ?

Click on his banner at the bottom of your screen. Muscle Morley. Also maxxgasser has a banner also.

 

[mckzx9]

Sorry morley's muscle. Lol

The stock early model GEN 1 seat is a torture rack. Anything is an upgrade. Check our vendors for a comfortable and better looking seat. There are a few good options.

Yep stock seats deffinately suck !

I'm a fan of the Corbin seat. Tried a cut-down (SportMax) and was uncomfortable for me. The front curve was always pressing into the privates. They can be made differently so that can be fixed I am sure. Most do not like the look of the Corbin but I have been using them for 20 years or so on several different bikes. Have taken many long trips with no pain or problems. Get the second gen version with the plug instead of the flap if possible. Easier to fill up and can use a seat bag on the passenger seat and still fill up. Just my :twocents:

Morley's "mid cut", MUCH better than stock:

I like the Morley seat . I was reading his page seems I will need a new base my seat base isnt perfect & has a crack in the rear of the front seat :-( .
I just emailed him we shall see .. Thanks guys

I ride a Corbin seat for many years now and Ive done 800 km a day trips on it, and I like it. No pain in the ass, and Im like 120 kilo unk:
De the metric math yourself :rofl_200:

I would love to try out some of these aftermarket seats. But really, the stock seat doesnt bother me. Sometimes I have to stand at a light to pull a wad out or pull my pant legs down. But I dont get off a ride with a sore ass. 6'2" 170lbs

Here is my Morley seat, I originally had a full cut, but it wasn't working for me. I talked to Sean and he reshaped it into a custom mid cut seat which fits me perfectly. I now can ride 600+ miles in a day and live to talk about it.
Here are the pic of the full cut:



And here's the revised midcut:



Sean made sure I was satified with his seat and the reshaping was taken care of by Sean! :thumbs up: :worthy::clapping::eusa_dance:unk:
I have sat on Rick's Maxgasser and it is very comfortable as well, and Rick offers the same top notch service and follow up as Sean. We are lucky to hav these two seat vendors here at VMF!

 

[NHVmaxpower]

I can't wait for new seat. Not sure what Sean's giving for a cut but he knows I'm 6 ft3 265 lbs.

 

[V-Four]

Hmm.. I've never had the priviledge(sp?) to ride with a stock seat.. My max came with a lowered seat (which woulda been my plan anyway).
Does anybody know what seat this may be? I do not have any history on the bike. (not hijacking , purposely. Just bringin more opinions to the party)

Looks like a sportmax seat.

 

[fmcandrew]

+1 on the Corbin...doesn't even feel like I'm riding a bike anymore!! And I like the look...smooths out the seat section nicely
