Nice pics! Well it doesn't stand out too much, but how does it feel when riding? Would you say its worth the money?
I got a real deal on the seat when I got my bike. I have had my comfort seat on the bike with in the first week or so of having the bike. I will have to ride my bike and then change to seat to get a good feel for the two seats. I dont even rembemer what the factory seat feels like.
I have road the last 3 day with the factory seat. I forgot how soft it is. At first i thought this seat is better then the comfort seat. As time went on my but started to hurt. I think the seat is to soft. The gel seat is firmer. On long ride the comfort seat is much better then the factor seat. Is is wort the money, I guess it is. Now their is other seats out to try. Not sure why my comfort seat has a ring on it. Itwas like that the day i got it. Not sure if the all have the ring mark on them. I am switching back to the comfort seat for sure.
This is a first post! Just bought a Blue One. I wanted to get the optional seat but the dealer checked with the warehouse and it is on back order and not expected till July. So I passed on that I did order the clear windscreen. The parts guy told me a lot of dealers show stuff on thier site but don't actually have it in stock he said when ordering on line ask if it is actually in stock.
Always a good rule of thumb. Working for an online retailer I know all to well how sites operate. Ask if it's in stock and if there's a shipping delay. Many retailers advertise in stock. They will tell you...yes it is in stock, in our offsite warehouse, which results in an additional 3 day delay for shipping.
It's IN STOCK THOUGH!
So any new updates on the comfort seat. With my 3000k mile ride to arizona coming up in a few months I need to get going on a seat. By the way for the guy that said try the spandex cycling shorts under your riding pants or jeans, I would advise no one to do this! I must have sweat more and wanted to get off the bike every change I got while wearing those stupid things! They were comfortable for about 20 miles then things started to get abit damp down south and I could feel the monkey butt :spank: coming on faster than just wearing boxers and jeans. All in all, dont buy spandex biker shorts unless thats all your going to wear!
HAHA, that's pretty funny! I haven't had trouble with mine. When I start to feel soggy, I usually just spread my legs away from tank and the wind dries me out fairly well.
A friend once recommended talcum powder... apparently it helps a lot for that sort of uh... dampness
