am i alone here?
 

am i the only one who DOESN'T think the GZ's stock seat is horribly uncomfortable? it doesn't bother me one bit.

I think so. My seat is comfortable for about the first 15-20 minutes of riding, till I compress the foam in the seat and it feels like I am sitting on the seat pan with a leather cover over it.

No. I'm with ya.

From looking at photos of everyone on the site though, you and I are rather slender and probably don't have as much weight going into our tuckus as others do.

Hey watch it now, don't tallk about my tuckus. You are probably right because i have gained probably twenty pounds since I got my bike and it seems the seat has gotten worse.

I sat on a Shadow the other day and it was like I was sitting on a cardboard box. I think my seat is much more comfortable than that. It's not a plush couch stuffed with goose down, but it's definitely not the most uncomfortable seat out there.

A new shadow patrick? Because my sister bought a shadow 600 in january and I had to ride it about 120 miles to her house for her (she bought it in the town I live in and lives in the town I am from) because she didn't know how to ride a motorcycle yet, and I found the seat quite a bit more comfortable over the long run than my seat is.

So I guess what we have figured out is that everybody's "Tuckus" is different, and we need and like different kinds of seats. Probably why there are so many custom seats out there.

It wasn't new. Just some random Shadow in a parking lot.

j/k. But it wasn't new.

Well I didn't really mean brand new, just a newer year model. :neener:

I'm thinkin' about putting a gel in the seat or make my own like what i did to
my bf's seat for his race bike. I seen this site for an idea and thats what i did to his
seat..http://www.itrocks.com/motorcycles/gel_seat.htm
I used to be a dressmaker when i was back home in the Philippines, sewing school
uniforms, dress, curtain, couch cover and i even made car covers when somebody ask me to :lol:
So i'm thinking about ordering on this site http://www.amspecialtiesusa.com/gelpad.htm
to make my own much more comfortable seat :tup:
What can you say?

Drive safe....

:oops: I'm not saying GZs seat is uncomfortable JIB, okey. I'm talking about my GZ, it's kinda old and
stiff or hard to seat on why i wanted to replace the cushion, although my "dupa" here got
a little cushion support :lol: :lol: :lol:
Whoever the owner was before, he must've left the bike under the sun too much.
My bf took off the back seat 'coz i won't be needing it and it looks much better. :tup:
