From what I have read from other posts here is that this is mainly due to
either the foot peg adjustments and/or the way you are seated. Possible
solutions mentioned were adjusting the foot pedals or repadding (or
replacing) the seat. I would first try different foot peg adjustemnts and
if none work try changing the seating. I know that when I sit in my boat
(it's design is meant for someone a little bigger then I) correctly (ie: my
knees braced) my thighs are elevated from the seat which causes discomfort
similar, but not as extreme, as what you feel after a period of time. I am
going to try adding some padding to the seat to help support my thighs.


Consider adding knee blocks instead of adjusting the seat. If the seat
angle is too high, that can cause numbness. Knee blocks and maybe even
additional thigh padding is more easily configured to precisely where you
need it.
