Passenger seat two-tone upgrade? 1 Year ago
|
|
As noted in my sig pic, I have the 04 R* with the two-tone black/brown seat with studs. My wife's butt seems to get tired a lot sooner than mine so I wanted to look into upgrading the passenger seat but would like to keep the two-tone look with studs so it matches the rest of the bike.
Ideas/websites/contacts would be welcomed - kind of curious how much it's gonna cost to fix this pain in the a**.

As different as we are, the road we travel is the same.

Take it to an upholstery shop and have them shave it down to fit better and add a gel pad and memory foam. I did that with my Mustang seat and it rides nice now.  |

My wife has the same problem. Have you done the peg flip yet? that seemed to help alot but still not enough. I will have to give one of those Air Hawk things a try.

The Roadstar passenger seat has as many problems as the rider seat. The slope / pressure points / and width in this case. I think the best passenger seat you can get is a E.D. Seat. It is wider sloped properly and is carved out in all the right spots. The width is accomplished by using a wider base pan which makes a big difference.
We can put a color inlay into the seat for you but would need to try to match that color for it to look right, so I would need a very good up close picture to try to do that.
If you are interested in doing this contact me direct at email below.

I have the passenger boards flipped which lowered them a couple of inches - she said that helped but not enough. I'm still contemplating other options.
