I am not tall


You may not this: when you ride a motorcycle for a long time your butt gets sore.

Solution:  Nadine got me one of these magical gel pads.
It's big.  It's bulky.  It's wonderful.


You may also not know this: I am taller on the inside than I am on the outside.  The pad is wonderful but it makes it difficult to put my feet on the ground when the bike comes to a stop.

Solution:  Make the seat more accommodating.

It took some time but I got my technique pretty well figured out.  To buy back some height I shaved the foam down.  From about half an inch in the front and sides to a little more than an inch in the back.  

Before:

After:

It may not look like much but I promise the difference is huge.  

After after: 
Damn, that looks comfortable.
