Kwak...Although I sympathise with your discomfort,I am surprised that you have not grown out if this adolescent behaviour yet? The pressing of one's "tackle" against inanimate objects is usually left behind in our teenage years!

Do you really have to have your crotch so rammed up against the back of the tank?

Have you thought of getting a replacement seat and sculpting the foam out a bit to see if that makes it a bit more comfortable?

For the want of a comparitively few quid it may be just the cure you are looking for - and if it doesn't work, you still have the original seat intact.

No, In all seriousness now......... Are your leather trousers a little tight ?
or may be if you altered the possition of the clutch / front brake levers to get a diffrent riding possition.

Suppose you could take a hammer and put a nice big dent in the tank to make room for your bits.
Okay I'll get me coat.

Your seat/leathers might be restricting the blood flow, AFAIK its a problem with cycle racing.
Have noticed that some bikes have saddles that have a channel down the centre to reduce pressure.
