For whatever it adds to this thread, I went with the RoHo air pad and found it raised me enough I was back in the air over the top of the windshield. I also sit up straighter more like a standard bike. I went from real pain in 35 minutes or so to a tankful non stop with the air seat cushion. I got the larger of the 2 and think maybe the smaller would be better. Be sure to get one with the tie downs in the cover. Older inventory won't have them and you will have to improvise a way to keep the pad in place when you are not on it. I got the new cover for my old pad. They run right at $200. but I see JCWhitney has them for 189.or so, and sometimes there are discount coupons in their catalogs. I like the more upright ride at this point. If we could get Suzuki Tempter here in the USA they are a standard with the 400 cc engine in them presently sold in Japan. Good looking bike, bikes were available on the Yahoo Savage page. Not if they would just put the 650 or even larger in it and import it, that would be a thumper.
