Replacing stock RT seat
After 3 hours in the saddle last weekend, I realized that I am going to have to upgrade the seat. Would the comfort seat be a good solution or should I look at some of the custom seats (Ultimate, KonTour, Russel Day long)? Your experiences are very helpful in my decision making process!

Russell Day-Long. A lot depends on what you need in a seat. Corbins are bricks to me, but fit many people very well. The stock seat is nice to me. Not much info available yet on the comfort seat for the RT, but it does move the rider back a couple of inches, and may not have much different padding . The Russell is custom made to your needs, and they will adjust it if need be. I had one on another bike, and never owned a better seat. In the interim, an AirHawk, beadrider, or sheepskin may help.

The suggestion to try as many as possible is a good one....suggestion : plan on coming to Lamont's BBQ in Sept. there will be 100's of Spyder's there......I'm sure all types of seats will be represented....and I'm sure you can get to sit on them all....Spyderlover's are Great People......Mike......

What are your specific complaints about the stock saddle? That might help narrow down possible solutions.

I ordered the Ultimate w/gas cap and 2" extension while at SpyderFest. Unfortunately, I'm in a holding pattern until it is produced. Will post more when I get it. I ordered the Ultimate because my wife is VERY happy with hers on her GS. And, their good folks.
What Mark sez is quite valid. What are the complaints?
