I have yet to sit on a stock seat that hasn't had my butt aching within 50 miles, forcing me to squirm around for a better riding position. We all have different body shapes, pain thresholds, and riding styles, but many riders have real problems getting comfortable on stock seats — hence, DIYMotorCycleSeat.com.

All you need to change your seat from torture rack to friend is some common tools, a desire to learn, and some patience. And by knowing how to do it yourself, you'll be able to tweak it whenever you like.
