Here is the fitting of the new seat to the bike. The cover is being cut and sewn as I write. As you can see it is far larger than the stock BMW seat that it replaces and I can tell you that the comfort is simply amazing. Instead of the seat trying to split my butt, this one "caresses" it. When you distribute the weight over a larger surface are that is shapped to fit with no "pressure points", the result is comfort! I can't wait to see what it looks like with the cover on and to hit the road for the ultimate test of Miles and Smiles". Chris says there is a break in of about a thousand miles, but he plans that into the foam shape so the end result will fit perfectly. This is an art and not at all as simple as I thought it was.
