| I've tried an Airhawk, which helps. I just received a Bead Rider and need to get some saddle time to see if it is better than the AirHawk.
I agree long term a Russell day long is problem the solution. |

I have used a Bead Rider to keep circulation going on long hot rides and an AirHawk on other seats that caused pressure points on my back side. I find the Vision seat to be very comfortable as far as cushioning but have added a back rest to ease muscular pain in my back after many hours in the saddle. |

For those not familiar with Russell Cycle Products, they specialize in motorcycle seat customization. Their work is top notch and the cost is reasonable for what you get back in return.

| A g Wing buddy of mine is getting his 3rd Russel seat next week. He's got @ 240k miles on his GW, just wears out the seat. He is very happy with a Russell seat. |

The best remedy for back pain is either the accessory back rest, or a lower custom saddle to keep all the back support and be comfortable on tje the tush. |

Posts: 166 Bullhead City, AZ | I have tried the bead rider and it does help with the air circulation. Only 2 trips Vegas to Bullhead and then back temps over 105 both times and I didn't fell like I wet my pants. I don't think it would help with a back problem. |
