This year, I have decided to ride with a group on a 24-hour 1050 mile trip.
I don't usually take long trips with the bike, but once a year I go on a longer group run. I haven't done that much mileage in that short of time, however, so I am wondering what some of you have done to make it less painful.
These are the upgrades I have made to the bike that I think may make this trip a little easier
1. TEC progressive fork springs
2. Fox Rear Shock Upgrade
3. Rivco Highway Pegs
4. Cruise control
Now, I need to do something with the seat. It seems adding sheepskin may be a good option. Has anyone added sheepskin for longer trips? If so, does it work?
I thought about getting a Corbin gunfighter seat, but I see they get mixed reviews. Are there other seat options that I have missed?
I don't think I'll have enough time to send the seat anywhere to get fitted.
Well, thanks in advance for your advice and comments.
