    I have a 2018 XR, pre TFT screen. Love the bike and find the seat mostly ok, but suffering with a bit of tailbone pressure, Has anyone here done any surgery on their seat to relieve this?

    Guess that’s a NO then?
    Might get a result if posted in ‘Triumph General Discussion’ section?
    Regards,Ken.

    I haven’t suffered from this on an older tiger but I do have a bit of natural padding. You could try a sheep skin or look into an airhawk

    Nope, not had any tailbone (coccyx) pain whilst riding either of the two 800 Tigers, 13reg XC and 18reg XRX that I’ve owned and that’s after having surgery on my lower spine albeit 20 years ago.
