[QUOTE="Dances With Deer, post: 1238893, member: 28148"] I use the word "pussies" lightly. It's kind of a standing joke between my riding buddies and me. I put a lot of miles on all manner of bicycles, and I always hassle my buddies for their seat/butt fascinations. After touring on a Brooks leather saddle, commuting on on a cut-out leather, or mountain biking on a skinny racing seat, I can't imagine complaining about a stock motorcycle seat. Funny, but I've been riding and owning my own motorcycle since I was 11 years old (I'm 58 now), and I've never yet bought an after market seat. Maybe some day...and yes, I can definitely see the need for sliders. The FJR is definitely a big old top heavy bike to push around the garage. But enough about me; I'm loving the FJR so far. Wow, what a sweet package...and my father finally loves me again; he's 78 and still rides a 1999 Honda Valkyrie Interstate (he also still bicycles 20 miles a day weather permitting). My love of BMW and KTM twins has always disappointed him. When he learned that I had bought a 4 cylinder Yamaha, he put me back in the will. Life is good! [/QUOTE]
