I had the seat reworked by a motorbike upholsterer as I am told a comfy seats the most important thing on a long distance trip.
The sponge was replaced to an unknown degree with new foam rather than gel inserts, the company advised me they moved away from gel pads as this was better, cant really comment myself. They are covered the seat with a grippy but fine surface. The final modification they made was re profiling it slightly so make it a tad wider for a better spread of arse cheek Haha.
Anyway, the seat was great, I initially started with a sheepskin over the top but this wasn't comfy after time. I ditched it in Dehli, and regretted not doing this earlier. It was so much better on it's own and I could ride a full day with fuel breaks in pretty decent comfort. Shorter days or half days it was actually perfect.
The seat works well with raid tanks but not oe unless modified maybe.
This seat was used with a acerbis tank which had a slight gap but wasn't an issue as I had a tank back over this. If i was to keep the set up i would have heated the base and bent it to suit, sadly the seat only arrived a day before I left so I had no time.
I spent a decent amount on this luxury item so would like £120 or nearest offer plus postage.
