Hawk seat

pistolclass · 08-23-2017, 10:10 AM

I spent about 2 hours in the saddle yesterday, all street and I have one complaint about the hawk. The seat it a medieval torture device for longer rides. I don't notice as much on the trails because in constantly on and off it. But on the street it is like a vice on the delicate parts.

I think I'm going to try the Coleman seat cover first, before I get drastic with it. Anyone else having the same discomfort? I get it that 2 hours in the saddle is a long time for a bike like this but my honda CR seat was way more comfy. I was 40 pounds lighter then so that might factor in the equation.

I'm about to add some additional padding between the Coleman and the seat to lessen the depression.
