If i could get a F3 seat on my RSS problem solved.

[gabbman]

I checked out the new F3 at my local dealer today. It is very nice but the only thing I really needed on my bike is the seat. It did handle better but I can wait a few more seasons before I change my RSS. Now If anyone has switched to a better seat that holds you in the bike please let me know.

Why not look to the aftermarket offerings?
Corbin, Ultimate and Russell Day-Long should have something to suit you...

This guy might even be able to get your butt happy in the saddle!

Thanks

yes I will look at all of them . I will try a few local shops first so I can sit and feel the seat. I was trying to get a general feel for what others have done in the past so thanks for the feedback I will surely look at those shops also.

That seat seems really comfy at first

But it gave me a sore butt in 45 minutes, but that may have been the bolt upright / quasi ape-hanger handlebar position, who knows!

Remember..!!

they moved the gas tank up front and this allowed the lower seating position. Many good seats out there but none will make it like the F3. I have the comfort seat on our RS and this has helped us a lot...:thumbup:

Corbin makes a seat with the "Lamonster cut" that is dished out where your butt fits.

Get with motorcycle Dave and see if he can remodel your seat to your liking.

Not my cup of tea but....

I would suggest a Corbin with Lamonster cut if you liked the F3 seat.

Lamontster cut?

What are the differences besides a little deeper? The corbin seat will move you one inch closer to the handlebars, and they're VERY firm.

the corbin didn't work for me. Bound and twisted my legs up at all weird angles while pushing me into the bars. It would likely work good on an ST where your feet are out in front of you more.

Well I had use of a standard Corbin for a few days, I wasn't blown away, but in hindsight, no sore butt!
I now have a BRP "comfort seat", and it just ain't all that comfortable, maybe it will break in, I hope.
