"Exclusive" riders seat - has anyone bought one?

[Martin]

I need to buy a high seat for the new (to me) bike. The BMW brochure offers two, one a standard high seat, the other, an exclusive high seat. Both are the same price. Has anyone on here bought the exclusive one, and if so, would you recommend it?

I recently bought the exclusive high seat and narrow pillion seat. Its ok but it is firmer and I am still getting bum ache after an hour. I'll probably get the original seat remodelled with a gel insert. One thing I like is that the exclusive seat has an extra piece of material on the front which hides that hideous gap between the seat and the tank when the seat is set to 'high' at the front.

I will sell the exclusive seats if I can get the original ones redone how I want them....if you're interested they are brand new and only used a couple of times.

If you go down the Exclusive route seems you might have a bit of a deal from davehartuk.

Looking through posts relating to the "exclusive seat" there's been a few bought, and soon after offered for sale. Are they not all they're cracked up to be?

Very happy with mine.

I like the seats but for me they are just a bit too firm. I have to go back to work on Monday but when Im back in November I'll most probably sell my seats and just get the original seats re-done how I want them. Shame really as the Exclusive seats have a nice look to them.

Can't be that "Exclusive", if all these folk have......
