Group buy Seat Concepts

[csi]

Yea.....their website isn't the easiest thing to navigate....but they have a few different material color options, as well as texture AND thread options.

My error.......I contacted them, and found out that the FJR seat is NOT available with that color of side pane......stitching yes, but not side panel.

My covers were delivered today!

I will try to remember to take photos as I recover, hopefully before Sunday, and then post them here.

Thanks again to s.ga.rider for setting this up. It was PERFECT timing for me!

Mine just got delivered today - I had them do the install because I wanted them perfect. I don't think I could have a local place do it for less $$. I'm anxious to get home and check it out but sadly I won't be able to test them anytime soon. It's 14 degrees outside today.

I got the all carbon fiber covers for both F & R. If anyone wants pics I'll be happy to snap a few when I get home.

Bundle up, go out and sit on it for an hour and let us know how it feels......

Mine was delivered yesterday. I just bought some glue and stainless steel staples today and will attempt the installation tomorrow.

BTW, I noticed they included the plastic cover sheet, but the instructions said it does not apply to bucket seats, so it will not be used. (I guess it's because the cover is sewn thru the foam to the support on bottom of the foam and you can't get the plastic at the sewn area) I'll be leaving the plastic off.

I made a big goof when I sent them my seat pans for the install for front and rear. I originally seat just both seat pans and no rear foam

So I had to send a second package to them with my rear foam which has added a least a week to my down time. Luckily its been butt ass cold here.

They got my rear foam today so hopefully I'll have my seats back next week.

Got mine in today but havent had a chance to open the box yet.

I'm so glad I had Seat Concepts do the install because it looks great. I'm also glad I went with the all carbon fiber cover... love it. I've only sat on it for a few mins but I think it'll work out very well for me. It has a little bit of a pocket for your arse but it isn't as pronounced as what you'd find on a Corbin.

Hopefully in a couple of months I'll be able to take a ride on it. <sigh>

 

[s.ga.rider]

Install was straight forward. Took me about an hour to do both seats. After the install I took about a hour and a half ride. Compared to the stock seat it sits noticeably lower and doesn't have the upward curve of the factory seat. It was comfortable on my ride and is definitely a firmer material. Time will tell on longer rides.

Package arrived yesterday. Everything looks really nice. Taking it to the upholstery shop today.

2 weeks before I have it back but I'm in no hurry. $60 install price from upholstery shop.

This is the video referred to in the instructions that came with the product. Would be the same for the FJR unless you're referring to a different video.

 

[HyperPete]

Thank you FreakyFastFreddie!

 

[SMR_SLT]

Got my seat today. Thank you s.ga.rider for putting this group buy together. Can't wait to try it out.

 

[HyperPete]

I contacted Seat Concepts to see if they had a video for a seat with a "pocket" like the Gen 1 and they sent a link for this video for the FZ09:



I'm wishing I had sent it in for them to do it. Still trying to get it right.

 

[Hotshoe]

Seat is mounted and looks great.very fast tur around time and excellent work. Maybe weather will allow a test run today.

Thanks SOUTH Georgia R idea for your efforts on this.It is greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I watched that video before I ordered mine. It's why I sent them my seat so they could do it. It's on the UPS truck for delivery today.

And the weather is looking good for a Sat or Sun ride with temps in the 60s.

 

[Wlfman]

Got my seats. They look awesome. I could tell a difference just sitting on them. Hope to get a good ride in Sun.

 

[Wlfman]

Got out today for a short 4 hour ride. The new seat is awesome. I no longer have the issue of being "pushed" into the tank. So glad I got in on this deal.

THANKS S. GA. Rider
