Seat Concepts question?

Recommended Posts

What options would you choose for your bike, and why?

 These are the three options I have for my ktmC76E2240-E669-49E8-956D-5614993B7CD8.thumb.png.0cb79ef806b567a4003fef787c395611.png

I had carbon/carbon on my first seat, and I kept slipping off.

I don't recommend it.

Got the premium suede on the seat for my 950. I dig it. Super comfy. Great for long leisurely rides and I’ve gotten quite a few compliments. Although I see you don’t have that option and I’m guessing this is for your small bike? Probably a completely different riding style than I do on my 950.

Gripper top can be agressive, maybe the low slip

I have the carbon fiber/gripper with orange stiching on all three of my KTM's. I love them. I don't want to move on the seat unless I decide to.

Pretty sure I am going to go with the carbon gripper comfort XL.  

Wondering if there is a SDAR discount or possibly a group buy option?

Now I'm jealous, I want an XL...That's a nice looking seat.

FWIW, I customize every seat I install on my bike. I use a sanding disc to "scoop" out a channel down the middle of the foam before installing the cover. This relieves pressure on my tailbone and is much more comfortable than just a flat seating surface.

Carbon fiber / gripper material combination works very well for me!

While researching, I saw someone say that " they will do that for you, I believe I heard them say they install a different softer material in that area.🤔

I ordered the low slip with orange stitching👍, and I just picked up a Giant Loop Coyote about a mile away from CL/ADVrider for $50! He has some Klim stuff for sale also. 

Thanks for all the answers, I appreciate your input 👍👍
