Any recommendations ? Think I may try s custom seat before selling bike. Narrower and maybe better foam to keep some comfort
Hey Bradders, I'm not sure if your up north or not but I went to this guy Bootleg Bike Seats - Home cost me £28 and only took him 3 days, I wrote about it in this thread Painful Coccyx | Ducati Forum
Bradders, a couple of guys in wvam went to a place in kent / sussex. One had their seat substantially reprofiled, the other had it shaped and a gell insert fitted. If this place is any good to you let me know and I will find out details. Cheers, John.
righto, I've emailed him and will post back tomorrow when he replies. I have a feeling it might be this company though: viking-motorcycle-seats.co.uk/
There's a very good chap called Glenn Moger who lives in Southampton. He does great work on motorcycle seats.
Bradders, I asked and he answered. It is indeed Viking seats that they used, and they are near Brands Hatch.
I used Tony Archer from up tut north' Tony Archer - Classic and Modern Car Trimmer, Motorcycle Seat Specialists
I have not had a Multi seat from Vikings, but I did get three 1980 Pantah seats restored and recovered there. The job they did was acceptable, but to be honest it was not quite up to the standard I was expecting. It was also rather expensive and took much longer than they originally said. Overall I would say their service is adequate but not outstanding.
Your not tense when your riding are you? you sound like I used to feel when I got my first bike in 20 years an R, for the first 500 miles I was so tense when I rode it it made every thing ache. Then all of a sudden I wasn't afraid of it and I got on with it really well until my accident. I don't know but may be because it's new you may be a bit tense?
