Well, 'fitted' a Tourtecs Comfort Seat Cushion Air to ease my aching butt. Seemed to work for local rides but did a 100 mile, 2+ hour loop today, by the end of which I was in such pain (of which I still have some) that the phrase 'trade-it-in' not too fleetingly crossed my mind.
What made it worse is that despite being on maximum tightness, the fixing loops on the Tourtecs still allowed the seat to slide from side to side so I ended up with back ache as well as butt ache.
So I think, as Jeffhorn did, I will visit the local mo'bike seat upholstery gent of great repute and see what transpires. Not yet though, got a house to buy, allegedly, maybe, if some people pull their fingers out.....
