Hmmm, well you made me do some research, it appears the Savage and S40 both have 27.6" seat height stock.
I thought your seat Pic looked like it was thicker than mine. Oh geesh, here I go me and my troubles--LOL
Okay, sooo I measured. The stock S40 I have is 1" to 1.25" thicker than the gel pillowtop I have(Depending on where you measure). Also, the stock seat is approximately 13" from tank to tailbone urple;">The gel is just barely 11" and is "cup" shaped, which pushes me forward.
The width of the gel is nearly 2" narrower, alsoThe stock seat rider and passenger is nearly the same height. The gel seat sits the passenger up higher (which I like better).
Wonder if the seats can vary slightly like stone washed blue jeans?
LOL
