seat options...

I couldn't afford any of that so, I made my own.  Pulled off the vinyl, went to fred meyer, spent $5 on some crappy foam and started cutting.  I have pics but I need a stronger staple gun to keep the vinyl on the seat pan better.  I'll post pics when that happens.

What did you do vfrrider?

A while ago I recently restored a VF-750 and I ordered a new seat skin and took it to a local upholstery shop to get installed.

The fellow who owned the shop used some new dense foam on the job, and the end result was a $25.00 bill for his labour, and the most comfortable seat I have ever sat on. He is well known by the loacl HD crowd.

Pays to check around.

Baldwin - same price range as Sarge, but better, won't throw you onto your tank, and he asks questions about you and the bike.

Just purchased a Sargent.  My thinking is that I started with the stock seat and have found it unpleasant.  I want to try out a mass-produced replacement before immediately jumping to a custom (if required.)  If the midway point satisfies, no point in going further.  If not, I'll know that the higher cost is justified in the quest for comfort.

Just did a 2000+ mile trip. Sargent and a home made Bead Rider made it a painless experience. (pre-medicated with Ibuprofen of course).

I was looking at the Corbin gunfighter seat for my 919, I've never owned anything but stock seats so I didn't vote.  Definitely post up what you get and write up a review on the seat for all us 919 owners...... (crickets)

Yeah, write up a review for me.

I have a Rick Mayer and a Russell. The Russell is far more comfortable.

I have a Bill Mayer saddle on the GS.

If I had the budget I'd have gone with the Russell...regardless, the Bill was good enough to see me across 2450 miles in 44 hours.

The stock seat on my FZ1 sucked big time. Sarge cured the pain.

+1 on the russell

I have had a Corbin, that did not work for me. Then a Russel day long that was fantastic, I never did 1000 miles, but I did do 625 and only got off the bike for a 20 minute lunch stop. I currently have a Sargent. Better than stock, but not a Russel. I did not want to do without the bike for a month to get another Russel, but now I am sorry.
