What I did do was buy a pair of Moto-skiveez http://www.motoskiveez.com which has helped some. They're like bicycle shorts with padding in the right places.
I've only worn them a couple of times so far and can ride for about 90 minutes before I start to squirm. By then it's time for a break anyway.
They aren't the be-all and end-all, but do help.
Sorry if I hijacked this thread.
Hey Rocky, about to trek on a 3 hour trip soon and I have the 13 standard...pretty uncomfortable seat for long rides. Those skiveez work pretty well for the long haul? Thinking about getting my gf and I a pair.

As I said, they aren't the greatest thing since sliced bread, but they do help. A lot depends on the person and your weight I think. I weight 190 and lasted about 90 minutes of steady riding before I began to feel the burn. Time for a rest by then anyway.
As a matter of fact, the first day I tried them was on a three hour loop along the coast and back and they worked quite well for me.
You may like them - or maybe not.
