Gel Seat

Hi, I recently changed over to a gel seat (uk £140) - the latest version - I think this made have changed for '08 (the one with design stitching).

The feel is a little more squishy (if that is a word) but I can't honestly say that the ride/comfort isn't anything fantastically better - the surface is smoother and I find with leathers I move about a bit when accelerating & braking hard.

Having said that - the reason I got it was to add to the looks of the bike - vain I know, but with the stitching and different sections of pattern just makes it a considerably better looking seat - so I would go for it especially if the insurance is paying for it - hope that is of some help.
