Nice bike I used to ride with someone with a bike like that. You can take the seat off and peel back the cover and add some padding. Restaple it and youll be all set.

You could also go to the local bicycle shop and get the gel pad shorts. I use them for longer trips and they work pretty good. A cheap alternative.

I'm so bad....I finally pulled these off my digital...doing some passes that day. Cottonwood & Independence passes (both 12K+ ft above sea level)

'01 got her brand spankin' new in April '01....just hit 40K miles last week.

No major mods, mostly cosmetic. tinted shield, rear hugger, micron exhuast...otherwise a stocker. Spend most of my 2 wheel budget on tires, oil, & gas...she's my baby!
