Beeze is correct in that it is the shape of the pan that is essential for comfort. I make my pans with a "flat" spot in about the middle and put a small innertube ( razor scooter or small garden tractor) in that spot. With the tube in that position it makes for a most comfortable ride.

I ride a rigid and I get about 80 miles between fillups with my 2.2gal. sportster tank but seat comfort is a non-issue with this set up. I run the seat with 3" springs and about 2-3 psi, I've ridden with people who have expensive, cushy seats who complain about their butts getting sore. They ask how I can handle riding such a thin uncomfortable looking seat and I tell them to try it out, the look they get is priceless!

My seats are nearly all done on the slim line West Eagle pan.....all have been used on Harley Davidsons except one that I did with the POW MIA art on it. The builder modified his frame mounts to accept it.

Very nice David...... I would be very proud to have that seat on my bike.... just so happens I wear a large POW/MIA back patch on my vest.

Busted,

Could you send me a picture of the step by step of this inner tube seat?

Busted - I'd also like to see a pic of what the seat looks like with the insert in. My BIL would like another seat and was thinking having me put a gel insert in. I'm intrigued by your option but can't picture what you're describing. Plus, where do you get this small innertube and what does it look like?

Thanks,

TinyL
