I want a custom seat: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

If you, like many other 250 riders, find your seat somewhat less than comfortable after a few hours, you can have the seat modified, or [[I want to reshape my seat|modify it yourself]]. There are also numerous businesses which will reshape your seat for you. This is an incomplete list: [http://www.sargentcycle.com/custserv.htm Sargent Cycle], [http://www.richscustomseats.com/ Rich's Custom Seats], and [http://www.corbin.com/ Corbin]. Sargent and Rich's will do a custom seat by mail-order, and [http://www.corbin.com/kawasaki/kn-250-r-gl.shtml Corbin] now has a ready-made seat for the 250, the only company to do so.

====Custom stock seat====

Another alternative is to get your stock seat reworked by [http://greatdaytoride.com Spencers Motorcycle Seat Mods]. Spencer re-works your stock one, so it has the same pan and cover. You pay for shipping both ways, and it's either $50 for the foam only or $75 for new foam and orthopedic gel. This gel is solid, like the stuff in better bicycle saddles, so it doesn't go away where you need the padding most. It looks just like the stock seat but feels much better.
