Where do you live Capitano ??
If you are close enough to me (South Coast near to Portsmouth/Southampton) I would be happy to bring my 2011 Mk3 over for you to try out.
What about using an air hawk cushion to ease pressure, I use one on my BMW Tourer to ease pressure on my coccyx on long trips, they are very effective and are based on medical products.

That's very kind, thank you. I'm in Southwick, right on the border with Shoreham By Sea. Maybe we could meet up at somewhere like Emsworth for a coffee.
Yes, good point indeed. The air hawk is something I'm considering for sure, but more as a backstop. Also having a seat re-profiled may be an option if something comes close to working but not quite there. I'd rather find something I can ride without modification, but I'll keep the other options open.
There is an airhawk version that is recommended by riders with similar issues to me, so I may get one anyway post-surgery.
My present setup on my Cub is this, a piece of racing seat foam, cut to alleviate pressure, and stuck on with self adhesive backing. Not pretty, but it works!
Sadly, it doesn't work that way on my W800 so that is at idle for now while I return it to near-stock over the Winter to sell it in the Spring.
