Seats are a very personal thing  [no joke intended]. I have no problem with
400 mile days on my @, but my Triumph Trophy was impossible to ride 200
miles on until I got a Corbin seat. I have a new Suzuki SV650 and the list
guys are complaining it has a terrible seat; I like it. On some bikes I've
had it takes only a little modification to achieve the comfort to ride all
day. Any good auto upholstery shop can do these modifications in usually 2
days or less and at a very reasonable cost. You will need to figure out what
changes you want made and tell the shop how you want it to become. A new
seat is the last resort only after you've tried to modify your original
seat.
