Gel seats
I did Norwich and back (220 miles) on Wed, and have come to the colclusion that either my bum is too skinny, or the Sv's seat is pants!!!
The girlfriend complained about the pillion after 3 miles of urban (yes, I know; get a seat cowl) Are there gel seats available for the k3? Blummin lovely run though

I bought my K3 a few weeks ago off Mutley on this forum. He had the seat sent away to be filled with Gel. Don't know where he sent it though.
Kind regards Tim |

my mate had a gel insert and a reshape of a curvy seat done by motorbikeseats in Coventry. A tad expensive I thought, so I simply copied the shape and left mine in plain foam.
There's little difference between the 2, but both are vastly more comfy than the standard, so I reckon the most important thing is the shape. What I have is a curve scooped out, about 1" lower in the middle (looking from the side), with the front and rear edges left as original. Easy DIY job. A hacksaw blade works well in sculpting the foam. All you need is a good staple gun (Arrow etc) and hold the base firmly against something heavy (workbench) or the staples bounce and don't go right home. |
