Which seat? (Read 221 times)

Sheriff41 Junior Member Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 88 O'ahu, HI	Which seat? 05/28/13 at 16:40:40 I recently picked up an '07 S40 and it's a blast to ride! My bike has the one piece seat--not too bad, comfort-wise--and am wondering if the older two piece style is more or less comfortable. Anyone have an opinion of them?

jcstokes Serious Thumper Offline SuzukiSavage.com is very useful Posts: 2119 Mauku New Zealand Gender:	Re: Which seat? Reply #3 - 05/29/13 at 03:43:20 300 mile plus rides will rivet your ass. I've got an Airhawk pad which helps. Some Americans prefer the Corbin "gel"??? seat, others modify seats off other bikes

I doubt I'll be doing any 300 mile rides here in Hawaii! I have a VStar 1100 for long rides and got the S40 for commuting and in town. I do like the solo look you can create with the older two piece seat, though.

Highly doubt it. The Savage/S40 is an oddball little bike, NOTHING fits without some serious massaging. I've got a modified Kawasaki VN800A seat for mine, and I'll probably never finish fitting it. Bike will be converted into a rigid in the next couple years, necessitating a K Model Harley sprung solo seat on 5 inch rise springs. Those actually fit the bike just fine, once you modify the frame for the rear spring mounts...
