Could anyone who owns the contemporary seat comment on whether or not the height is the same as on the stocker? I'm fairly tall and don't want my knees any higher by switching to a lower seat.
Also if anyone has pics of the brown seat on a bonnie black I'd love to see those. Seems like it might work well but my imagination has fooled me before.

I've got the Sixty8 Contemporary (black/gray) seat on my '01 Bonnie. Seat height is unchanged from what I can tell, although I haven't actually measured it. Here's a picture of the seat with the black seat cowl attached.

A better question would be why triumph charges $42 for a new cut key for the steering lock. Beat that one !!! :-D
