If you look at the seat side on its a curved shape which also slopes up at the front.
Flat seats probably suit people with flat arses...?

****

Arses

Looks like the software only objects to the singular.

This is what I have. Looks like a custom cover from a place in Coventryhttp://www.cmseats.co.uk/ . I don't know if it is just the cover or they reshaped the seat too. It was on another bike at the dealer and I asked for it to be put on the one I was buying. Looks nice, but it is not as comfortable as the Sargent seat I had on my old K5.
