Title: Seat?
Post by: Clickjack on June 15, 2010, 11:33:48 AM
I want a seat that will help keep me in the saddle all day.   If possible I'd like one that I can still use the pillion cover.  I think the bike looks so much better with the passenger seat covered.

Suggestions?

sargent and corbin are the favorites.
sargent is softer, corbin firmer

^^^forgot about this one. its the cheapest and very popular.

ive heard that it gets hot in the sun, which may be good or bad. personally i like

I had a sargent and a seat cowl. it fits, but the rear section is wider so it looks pinched. the average person may not notice but I did, it looked bad to me. the DP seat would probally work perfect!!!
