Skinny ****

[Fallout]

It sucks having a skinny ar$e. Yesterday I did just over 100 miles and it feels like someone's been kicking me up the backside with a steel toe capped boot. My poor tail bone.

Can somebody with a fat ar$e lend me some padding please? :confused:

[dizzyblonde]

You have two choices for the solution to your problem

A: the cheapest option...eat more pies
B: Get a shock that works, but thats expensive.


I have to say, I have tried both of these methods, being of the skinny variety, and I can vouch that A is more fun....I don't like spending money on things I can't eat :)



Must be in the genes....German Yorkshire mixes are both tight, and lovers of pies and cakes and bratwurst and pies....mmmmmm must look in the fridge now BYEEEEEE!

[Fallout]

Dizzy, I've tried eating more pies, but it doesn't seem work. I can't get fat. I once tried a "Simon must always be full" strategy where I would gorge on vast quantities of carbs and fat and burgers and sugar (and of course pies) whenever I felt even slightly hungry. I didn't put on any weight, I just spent a fortune on food.

Nah, my backside is always destined to be without cushion. So I may have to upgrade the spring, or wear 10 pairs of pants.

Cycling shorts with a gel insert?

[dizzyblonde]

^^^ thats a good start!

OEM curvy gel seat sometimes appear on ebay or here, used to be about 40 quid second hand

Occasionally you might find a Corbin, for similar, but they are rare....I has one, and no ya cannae have it ;)

Or send your seat to Tony Archer, and have him put a gel insert in it, around 60 quid iirc

[Geodude]

I feel your pain Fallout as I too have no ar*e and plenty off pies have given me a full belly but still no ar*e. So you are not alone :)

[Fallout]

Trust you girls to make sensible suggestions! I was expecting some bum related mocking! :D

I never thought about adding a gel insert though. Can't be too hard right? Peel back the seat fabric, stick some discarded PIP implants in and then glue the fabric back in place. Could be worth a go using a second hand seat off ebay ....

@Geodude. I can't even get the belly mate. I obviously shouldn't winge but I tell ya, riding home late last night when the temp had finally dropped, I wished I had a bit of insulation on my bones!

[Geodude]

Haha aye mate blubber keeps you warm ;) I was a lightweight under ten stone and a 28" waist until a few years back and would love to be a bit lighter again but i like my pies now :) but still no ar*e ;)

[allantheboss]

I took a pillow with me when I rode to France, sat on that whilst riding, slept on it at night. Either that, or butt clenches.

[Fallout]

True that matey. Went out again today with a hoody on under my jacket, stood out in the sun, thought it felt nice and warm, went back in and dumped the hoody, got on the bike, froze me skinny ar*e off! :D

Go down the gel seat route, mines lovely and comfy.

I too have a skinny ares :D

In fact I'm skinny full stop

Nice one. Comfort over style! Hope you didn't get too sweaty. :mrgreen:

Bah! A curse on skinny boastful people like you. Bet yer wear jeans around your thighs as well. I only have to look at a pie and put on a pound. Regards Captain Lard Ar$e.

hahaha! I'm too lanky to wear jeans around my waist without looking like Simon Cowell with a wedgy. If it makes you feel better, with a metabolism like mine, I'd waste away and die within 2 days on a desert island, and you'd just be looking better and better. :mrgreen:

Dunno why you skinny folk think us fat folk have more comfort, we've got more padding, but twice the weight going through it.

There's a joke about Triumphs in this...

I'm not brave enough to risk the Triumph mods

I must be odd as I find the SV plank seat fine and did 500 mile round trip with to aches from the **** (and it tried to medically swallow the seat on the A69)

I was going to say, guess you have an sv, feel for you mate. It's not your **** it's the seat, get it changed, Triumph do good ones :mrgreen:

BFM I'm alergic to triumphs- they make my wallet anchor in tighter than a Yorkshireman's

You're right Mav, I've done a scientific survey and most are in fact fat, most have grey hair, and unbelievably most find the Triumph forums too boring.

I'm with Smithy I never had a problem with the SV seat, but then I have an ample ar$e. Not fat, just powerful, like a compact shire horse.

Plus they wear leather chaps and leather cowboy hats

It's ok Andy, he did have underwear on, just they were hidden by the moon and they were leather for extra protection. Loads of these about today, http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu94/andysv/THE%20ORG/DSC_0030_235.jpg

see real bikers aren't like your photo. Check out the side stand? Derail?, I say Nay Nay, look at the comfy seat, that's what you need.

He was asking his mate 'Does my bum look big in this' :p

[Fallout]

That dude looks as skinny as me (normal man, not naked bum guy!). Maybe I've got the wrong bike. Skinny ar*s man knows something I dont.

[DJFridge]

I have the answer - get married and go through 35. That's the point at which "padding" starts to be easier to put on than work off!

I'm still fairly lightweight mind, it's just harder work than it used to be staying that way. I went on honeymoon with a trim 30" waist. When I came back, none of my trousers fitted any more!

Mrs & I haven't done more than about 50 or 60 miles on the bikes in one go yet so I can't really comment on the seat comfort. Or Triumphs. All the real larda%$es were out today - Hardly Rideables everywhere, so much chrome...

[Sid Squid]

Cycling shorts with a gel insert?
Works well - many couriers used these until they developed a leather ****.

[Specialone]

Get a proper bike, the sv seat is fecking terrible, the pillion seat is worse still.

Gel seat is the only way to get some kind of comfort apart from changing to a proper bike imo ;) (triumph!! :cheers:)

Sadly I agree with Phil.

Sv seats are awful and curvy's by and large, are owned by ageing transvestites who love a bit of ar$e action so are used to an uncomfortable ride.

Oh and triumphs are comfy :)

[Littlepeahead]

Air hawk seat pad. It's all you need.

Damn! So all these nice ladies, like Dizzy, LPH and Shona are in fact well groomed men in dresses? Well, I'm glad you said it and not me. :mrgreen:

Btw, one of my mates has a Speed Four, and he is as skinny as an aids victim and looks like one too. So none of these rules appear to be true. I'm starting to think all this fat triumph transvestite related advice may not be entirely factual. :confused:

[Littlepeahead]

But I ride a pointy and I've got a custom made seat designed to be comfy on a lady's bits and it has a gel insert. Mr LPH has the Air Hawk for his skinny bum.

After your Super Size Me meal I saw picture evidence of, you're well fat for sure ;)

There is evidence on here now that I am not fat!

[BanannaMan]

Get a Sargent seat made in the US.
More comfortable than a Corbin and it allows you to move around more on the bike.

[Winder]

5000 butt clenches a day. Move on to cracking walnuts after a month and you will have cheeks of steel that can cut through standard seats and sit on the subframe without you even realising it. You could even use your man buns to protect the PM to deflect high caliber rounds from sniper rifles and the like.
Get clenching
