Peter,

Initially the seat seemed really high and was quite painful, this probably had a lot to do with me being on the DL650 seat all day prior to picking this one up, at this stage it seems to be better and going for the firmer padding also appears to be the right choice. I think it will need a good 3-6 months bedding in time to be fair so I'll keep getting back to you as time progresses.

Regards

Dave

I've checked out a number of local upholsterers that profess to know all about motorcycle seats and as a result I engaged Peter of comfyseat also known as Reliable Retrim to remodel my DL1000 seat for long distance riding, since getting the seat back I've travelled around 1000 kilometres and the seat is progressively getting better as it moulds to my backside, the verdicts still out on this but as I increase the mileage and continue to give comfyseat more feedback, then one would hope a local business would grow to support our needs here rather than running off to support a foriegn interest.
