Gen 4 seats

Guys,

I was having some warranty work done on my bike yesterday and I had the latest Get 3 S1000R M Sport for the loan bike... Lovely bike.... perfect if it had a fairing.

Now my bike is amazing but for the seat.... so I compared the two seats from the two bikes. They use the same base pan and the edges are all contoured the same.

So comparing both M Sport Seats.... they are chalk and cheese. RR Hard as a plank and I'm doing a plank a disservice, the R M sport seat a much better shape and softer.

Std RR and R Seats exactly the same, they might as well have the same part number.

Tall Seats I'll be doing some research on as I physically couldn't my hands on either.

Interesting expansion of seat options. J

I have the 3rd gen S1000R Tall Rider seat on my 4th gen RR and it fits fine. Also fairly comfy

That?s good to know. It?s between the S1000R ?M Sport? seat and the ?Tall? Seat in my thoughts at the moment.

I bought a standard seat for my M sport RR. Its great for any distance work. All I need.

Yep, I?ve got one of those as well. Ok but could be better. J

I have a spare M Sport High (33.4") seat available for sale. PM if interested

This has been on my mind also! I love the look of the gen 4 seat with the M logo but Jesus Christ it?s like sitting on concrete! Done a 3hr ride and was walking like John Wayne afterwards?.

No question the M seats are firm but I'd rather one of them than concrete
If. you are leaned forward then the seat is more comfortable but its not a touring seat lol.
I tend to ride more upright which is why I bought an RR rather than other sport bikes.
This all said the M probably works well on track and it does look really nice.
I liked it but tried the S1000R Tall seat and it is definitely more comfortable but still not as nice as the seat on a R1250GS!
