Where to buy comfort seat and do you sit higher with it?

[Reinyn]

Well the title basically says it all.

After my girlfriend and I took our first extended Spyder ride (2 hours) we had a serious case of seat soreness. I commute on the Spyder regularly but I usually don't ride it for more then 30 minutes at a stretch and I hadn't noticed any issues before our long ride. So I'm seriously considering a seat upgrade.

The only potential issue I can think of is that I'm 6'4" and with the 1" riser I sit fairly upright on the Spyder. I have the CHAD windshield and with it fully extended and with the rake in the middle I get a bit of head buffeting, nothing too serious yet. I'm concerned though that if I sit up much higher I'm going to run out of adjustment range with the CHAD.

Also If anyone knows where to get the comfort seat for a good price I would like to know.

Thank you

You will sit lower than you do now Thats the problem with the seat you feel like your sitting on a basketball way up in the air.

Thank you steven888, but I have a feeling that the timeline I'm going to be looking at (to get the seat done) isn't going to work for me.

Anyone with some BRP comfort seat experience?

I just ordered the Comfort seat from Mike and like Bone Crusher said it was $350.00 and should be here by Friday or next Monday at the latest. I also just ordered the "Juice it and Breathe Easy" special from NMN. If I don't slow down, I'm going to have more in accessories than I paid for the bike.:dontknow:

I've got the BRP comfort seat and love it. It's much firmer, but as to being higher or lower, there is no overwhelming difference. It LOOKS much better, that's for sure.

I rode a demo with the comfort seat and you seem to sit about 2" or so higher on it. Here was my review of the seat. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11964
