Title: Suzuki gel pillow seat
Post by bill67 on 10/27/09 at 16:27:05

I got the suzuki gel seat today $207 with shipping.Got it late this afternoon so only road it 45 minutes.Its 3/4 inch narrower than stock seat but the base is same width It might spread a little.Its a little stiffer than stock but My stock one soften some after about 700 miles.It slides me forward about 2 inches.The the best thing about it it takes the bumps better which was what I was looking for.The 2 inches forward puts more weight on front tire which I like.But I'm 5'6 so forward is alright for me ,A taller person might not like it because of being forward the 2 inches.

I've got 2 helmet or helmet and a jacket sized one on the bagger (42 l) and the same size with integral stop light on the rack of the sidecar. Chose GIVI brand for quality vs JCWHitney China manufactured ones. I seen ads for anther brand out now. They may be a good compromise as the Italian stuff isn't cheap. I use the quick detach plate so I can remove it and take it in the room with me when traveling. Made/modified brackets* to go to a salvage yard package rack the QD carrier bolt to after removing the rear pillion pad. *that came with some other bags. Works for me. Max Also have the GIVI 21 L cruiser side bags to match. Came off a BMW and I had to have plates made for them to work, but they will hold a grocery sack + apiece and they match the trunk.

I don't do pictures but you can see the seat at Suzuki motorcycles,You get jarred less when you hit a big bump. Its not snowing yet but our riding season is pretty much over.
