Dear experts.

I really need some help! I am the a proud owner of a 2012 F800GS as of Feb 2014. Having driven Jap bikes before (still own a KLR650) the BMW is totally in a class of it's own, absolutely stunning bike...but for an embarrassing problem (at least for me it is!)

It is freaking uncomfortable to the point of a pain in the a...  :mad:Ok I know bike seats are designed by pain specialist but my standard BMW seat was designed especially to pain me.  >:DThis is my great misfortune to experience every day on my drive from Centurion to Bryanston and back. My right leg starts to cramp, bottom feels pinched and pelvis goes pins and needles. Also my hands take a beating almost I am hanging down on the handle bars. Now I know not to compare however I do not have any of these symptoms with my KLR which I drove this week on the same route, but today I used the BMW and was pained for the effort!

EXPERTS what do you suggest? BMW comfort seats, airhawk, gel seats and whatever IMHO means? (as seen in other post) what really works before I fork out my Mandela's?

My vital stat, fat a.. 105kg, 1.77m (inside leg 79cm) 47 young, never been off road with this BMW, all tar for me.
