F800GS Comfort seat

Anyone got one for sale?
I can probably collect if you are mainland UK.

Ebay or new?

Well ebay has one at £140 with 2 days to go. Or £240 new.
Knowing ebay and the strange bidding frenzy that can happen, its possible to go over new price.

Yep, seen that one. They always end up near new price! Maybe I'll just have to buy new instead!

I've got a standard seat that I had as a spare while mine was away being custom upholstered, have you considered going down that route instead?

Airhawk or sheepskin...If you want long distance comfort look on the iron butt website...1000 miles at least in a day/24hr comfort

And indeed both together

I'm after a Comfort seat myself, might even bid on the ebay item, but yes, I'm thinking custom my standard or low seat (prob Standard) as I feel the comfort seat ruins the bikes looks, only trouble is its hard to test drive a custom seat and could be £80 - £100 wasted that could be used against the comfort.

I think its a sod the cost and go for a custom and if its no good try and resale. + cheaper, + It'll look better, + easyer to load the back seat (flatter), +can control height, - might not be comfier.
Why not do both, as we can see second hand seats sale at good prices.

I just looked at the Saxon seats (bournemouth) website and they sale a gel, medical grade pad to insert into your seat, so your misses get a boob job if its no good, a win win senario?
