Hope to have mine by Saturday (today hopefully) and maybe to Sunday morning as well. Perhaps we can all play our radios real loud on rides :lol:

Will provide RT riders with cushions on chairs at the tuning day......GS riders are comfortable standing apparently :P

G'day there.

I'm only a newbie myself (here, anyway),

I ride an RT too. (Well, I will as soon as it arrives from the USA :oops: ... sometime in June.)

Meanwhile, here it is in all its ... glory:

[Sigh] Counting down the days ...

G'day BIWOZ

Ummm... those seats are illegal in WA. You better swap it with my GSA seat when your bike gets here. I know, I know... I'm too generous.

Always looking to help out others...

BTW - if anyone else makes this offer to you, don't trust them :lol:

Hell! I didn't know that!!

:wink:

They're great seats ... in August 2008, when we did a tour of the USA N-W on that bike (5115 km in 11 riding days), we did one day of almost 700 km (that's two-up) ... and I slept well that night (martinis help), but could still get up next morning without pain and do it all again. Three hours without getting off was too long; but two-and-a-half was fine. It's a Sargent seat (unheated) ... current price is ~$690USD.
