    Hi all,

    After many years of dreaming of a scrambler I have been riding a street scrambler since last October!

    It's just amazing! Love it! Done over 1000 miles on it so far.

    My only problem is that I have started to get aches in the tailbone. Does anyone else experience this?

    I have been riding a V storm for the last 4 years and didn't have any back pain.

    Would love to know what others have done to make the ride more comfortable.

    Thanks all!

    Sylv

    Hi n welcome, have you tried just adjusting your position on the bike. Moving your backside around just a little or bending your arms goes a long way in helping and changing the angle of the bars could help as well.

    Pearl,Ms.
    Good morning and welcome in. I also ride a Street Scrambler, but have not experienced your problem. Maybe you could look into one of the many pads available to help out with this problem. I was thinking to start small before looking into a replacement seat, mainly because of the cost.

    Good luck and enjoy the ride. Remember to always ride safe bro!

    Thanks all! I have been trying to sit a bit forward and bend my arms in. It seems to help a bit. Although it feels a bit different!
