Ortho deluxe sheepskin gel pad from American Motorcycle Specialties

[Guest 05RSMVTEXAN]

Has anyone purchased or used the Ortho deluxe sheepskin gel pad from American Motorcycle Specialties? I just purchased a 2005 Midnight Venture. I love the bike, but my tailbone is about to kill me. And my wife is about to die also on the pillion. We had a Royal Star Tour Deluxe with the Mustang set up and we loved it. Any advise?

I think the first thing you should do is dump the pillowtops. My bike came with a pillowtop rider seat on it and it killed me. I bought a standard seat and it's much better for my fat butt. You may wanna see if there is someone in you area that might switch ya seats for a ride to try out.

This bike has the standard seat. It doesn't have pillow tops.

Maybe you should check into a set of pillowtops then

 

 

But seriously, I like the standard seat with a Diamond R backrest. Most comfortable setup I have ever ridden with. I have a Sabblebums sheepskin cover for the pillion. It was originally for the front seat on my Roadstar with a Mustang seat, but it's a very close fit for the passenger seat on the RSV, and she loves the sheepskin. The skin doesn't have any gel in it, it's just a skin. I know that's not the answer you were looking for, but it's as close as I can get.
