I average 78 mpg. Good to see she will roll thousands of miles more LOL. As far as the seat, I found that if I slide back on the seat a tad to the more wider point of the seat it's much more comfortable. Is it as comfy as a Hawk or Brozz seat? No, but it works ifn yer back side gets sore stand up a while LOL

The 215 miles I did was with 168 miles of dirt road so it was slower and I was in the saddle for over 8 hours of a 10 hour day.

So, it seems like a seat pad would help out in comfort. Thanks for your guys' input!
