Re: new chopper is killing my a#@! and back!

It is the seat.
My back is fine the other things do not like that style of seat.
The front even seems to point upwards! Ouch.

I like the chopper .
use a Tractor style (legs together) or a wider Motorcycle (comfy couch) style.

Part of me thinks bicycle seats were designed for Women not Men.

Thanks Joe. I talked to Duane (dax) yesterday and he said that seat with the backrest is the most comfortable seat he has ever had. I think I might bite the bullet and get one. I like the fact it has a backrest. Its funny, this chopper is so low its like a recumbent bike.

Rig a bar stool seat. (Just kidding). My first thought was a padded sissy bar but the seat with the backrest will work better. I've seen them on some beach cruisers.
That bike looks to nice to sit in a garage, gathering dust.

Look up Honda Rebel 250 on Ebay. You can get a seat out of china for about 60 bucks. Real leather, nice padding, and suits a chopper. That is what I am going to do on my chopper build...POPS
