I have a new seat on order for my 06 klx250s but won't get it until July. So I'm looking for a cheap temporary fix. There was a thread - either on this forum or another one - showing something called Happy Buns or Butts or something and it was a flap that goes over the seat and has two foam cushions on the sides. Does anyone know what that is?

While I'm on this topic, what is a good source of sheepskin seat covers in the US?

 

I think that may be the "Sweet Cheeks" seat cover: http://cycle-analyst.com/sweetcheeks

Sheepskin pad try here: http://www.alaskaleather.com/

 

If you want to go on the cheap get the Stearns or Coleman ATV comfort ride seat protector. About $20 and riders that use them say they are comfortable. A bunch of KLR riders use them. Strap on wrapping over top the seat.



Not pretty, but functional. It spreads over top the wide ATV seat, but will wrap down on the sides of the bike seat.

 

Sweet Cheeks with a 30oz MSR fuel bottle wrapped in blue Walmart foam in each side. Your riding buddies will look and snicker until they need to borrow some gas...

I like it. So it doesn't come with foam.. is that just closed cell foam like one would put under a sleeping bag?

 

Yes, it is.

I wouldn't suggest using the WM blue foam mat under a sleeping bag though, it compresses way too easily and you end up sleeping on the ground.

 

Sweet cheeks is a great solution and will toss them my vote for the small price and ease of use. I've used 2-liter soda bottles. Soda is a nice mixer to have at camp; plain air in the bottles on the way back was fine for the long ride. It provides good support. Foam would be nice too but haven't tried it yet. Applied to a Guts Racing tall seat which isn't the best for long miles in the saddle as it is narrow, but the Sweet Cheeks makes those rides a pleasure.

 

Got the Sweet Cheeks, which is an elegant, effective design. Filled the two 20 oz. bottles with water. I also stopped into the Overland Sheepskin Co. while cruising through Taos, NM yesterday. No need to order from Alaska! Nice.
