Comfortable seat on my America. By more comfort I mean it should be a little wider and have a bit more padding. Next spring my local riding club is going to organize an Iron Butt Ride, and I want to be ready for that. Anybody have any suggestions?

Agree 100% with the corbin comment. don't be seduced by a fluffier seat - the corbin is actually stiffer to start but MUCH more supportive and comfortable.

Get the Corbin with the backrest. It was the best addition that I ever did to my speedy. It's a bit pricey but it is worth it. I'm 6'-3" and would have a killer backache(in addition to a numb butt) after a long ride with the stock seat. The backrest completely eliminated the back ache. The seat will take a while to break in, it took me at least a thousand miles to get it to the comfort that I expected (and paid $$$ for!)
Women and cats will do as they please. Men and dogs should just get used to that fact and relax

Thanks for the input guys. I was looking at the Corbin web site, and I think I'll give it a try.
