Any comments/opinions on replacing both seats with Utimate Seat on 2020 RT-L?

[Thad]

I have 3K+ miles on the bike and the butt goes numb after 1/2 hr riding. I had an Ultimate on my 2006 Goldwing so I know the quality. I have searched and read comments on Ultimate on this forum but haven't seen anything relating to the full set. I know I will be replacing the 2-piece seat with a 1 piece seat I am thinking of getting the full set (midrider seat, driver backrest, and passenger backrest). Appreciate any comments and/or opinions.

Thanks
Thad

I installed an Ultimate seat on my F3L and have no regrets……I don’t fidget anymore trying to get comfortable. Same experience on my Goldwing. I do find on my F3L it raises me up about an 1inch……..

I installed the comfort driver/passenger heated seat on my 21 RTL and both my wife and I really like it. That said, I still use a WildAss seat cushion to raise me up a bit - coming from a BMW R1200 Adventure, the CanAm still feels "small" (read more cramped). The combination works well.

Hi Thad, see my other response for what I did - I am in Rochester, not far for you if you want to meet to check it out . Or, if you will be at Americade, my company (Third Eye Design) will have a booth there, please stop by, I'll have the bike there every day.

Will not be at Americade. Interested in looking at the Wide-Vu Side Mirrors. Maybe we can get together the week of Sept 27.

Only your butts will know for sure. For the cost, Russell Day Long or Seth Laam bear consideration.
