Default seat discomfort..monkeybutt

I've got a 2000 heritage and have noticed that in warmer temps it's uncomfortable on anything over 30 to 45 minutes. I'm looking for some sort of seat cover or some quick but inexpensive as well to allow me to go on longer rides. I'd like to be able to get through a tank without having to stop.

I use the Beadrider on my Ultra's seat. After riding it to the HD 105th last summer I did not have any seat discomfort at all and no monkeybutt or wet seat. The Beadrider circulates air under you thus eliminating monkeybutt totally. They are also inexpensive. If you need some additional proof, 70% of the Iron Butt 11000 miles in 11 days riders last year used the Beadrider. That's what sold me on it. Check them out at http://www.beadrider.com/ I do not work for them, but only a very satisfied customer. Jerry

I bet that sheepskin would be great. I ride horses long distance, 50 miles in a day, and use a similar product for the saddle. Very comfortable stuff all year long.
