Soulkiss got one for his "batmobile" recently.. Had a chance to sit on his Kwak and must say it was really comfy.

I am seriously thinking of getting one for my VFR.

Bagster UK also do the 'SEATSTER' which is a complete replacement for both seats on the SV, turns it into a bench style seat. I saw it at the NEC and it looks really good.

Bagster do 3 products.

Seat covers - they send them to you, you fit them.

Comfort Seat - you send them your seats they repad and recover them - takes 6 weeks (so you need spare seats)

Seatster - Complete seat unit - new seat pan, foam etc - 6 week delivery but you still have your seats, not available for all bikes.

Mine cost £320 - but IS a big improvement comfort wise.

I have a spare Z750 front seat from where I was trying to get a set to send away to get a comfort seat (before they announced the 07/08 Z750 Seatster) which I am going to send to this guy to get done http://www.diggerseats.co.uk/ - I got a quote that was about £60 with a few days turn around.......

Be aware that if you get one that has the pillion and main seat joined together, you'll lose the ease/speed of access to the under (pillion) seat storage.

I've got waterproofs, a disc lock and a first aid kit under the seat. I think I'd rather have a 2 piece seat or just the rider one (I rarely take pillions) and then keep the seat cowl for the back .

Got a Bagster Seatster thingy. Yes I get the problem where I can't get under the pillion seat - however I think they've fixed this issue on later ones. Basically the whole seat lifts off when you turn the key in the side.

Very comfortable. I do 110 miles a day with no problems at all - way better than stock. One of the best mods by far.
