After a new seat

Postby psycho 636 » Sun Aug 21, 2011 6:40 pm

After heading out today for a run through the national park and down in to Wollongong and back. After being off the bike for quite some time I forgot how uncomfortable my seat gets on long journeys and am looking at getting something that is a lot more comfortable for the longer trips and doesn't make me walk like I have been riding a horse all day.

So wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a supplier of after market seats. After a seat for a 05 zx6

What sort of ball park figure am I looking at to have it re-done?

No idea to be honest.

Smithy5 had his done.

Phil had his done.

Tape had his done

That's the few I can think of at the mo.
Someone will pop in here soon enough

Yeah Big Kev is the man..... It will be a lot less than an airhawk or aftermarket seat and Kev will mould it to suit your ass.
I had major remoulding of both the rider and pillion saddles and a recover with extra piping... great work and a great price
