hi everyone,im currently the proud owner of an all black 2012 gladius and what a great little bike it is after decades of big heavy ones,but why oh why have Suzuki spoilt it with that awful plank of a seat,surely they could have put a better upholstered one on and still kept the seat height low.Well ive given mine to Tony Archer in Huddersfield to put some(a lot) of comfort into it.Ive had many seats done by Tony and I can recommend him highly.Will let you all know the results shortly.

Sounds great.

I've often thought about having a go myself but at that price I might make the effort any book a trip over.

+1 pics please

Looks good,is it a solo seat,can't tell from that angle.


Sometimes I like the single seat look,thats why its cool to have the cowl as well.

WOW, hes not changed his prices in ten years!!!
Well worth the money, and thoroughly recommended.
I don't think he charges much else to do a gel insert as well!
