Has anyone bought one of these tried one of these,
I think TeapotOne has one on his 1300
 
I have two. The standard and the 20mm higher. I’m trying both before I decide which one to keep if either. Only done about 90 minutes with the standard wunderlich and not overly impressed when compared to the BMW OE comfort.
That said I need to give it more time. I remember experiencing the same when I changed the seat on my 1200 and 1250 GSA’s. I’ll keep you posted. What I can add is that the OE seat for me was better with the wunderlich riser kit. It lifted the front which is what I needed.

Thanks for that will look at the riser kit
Thanks
 
I tried the "high" Wunderlich seat from Nippy Normans, but with the cool covers on it was a touch too tall for my 34" inside leg.

The standard one was fine for me. Firm, but decent.

The risers were also good on the standard seat insofar as it lifted the front up a bit and stopped it throwing you forward. But I didn't like the support that seat provided.

I’ve done about 1000 miles on mine. It’s better than the standard but not really a game changer. It took a few hundred miles to ‘bed in’ but the standard comfort seat was so bad for me the improvement was worth it.

I have the normal seat also the high seat but can’t get comfortable on either, not sure if it’s the ergonomics that force your knee and hip backwards.
Strange never had a problem with 1200 or 1250

which one did you keep in the end, I have the wunderlich standard height but thinking swapping out to a high seat?

Got them both still, but think I’ll be selling the standard height and keeping the high seat. Tomorrow I’m riding for a few hours and will decide.
 
Nippy Norman was doing a deal where you can buy any seat and if you dont like it within two weeks you can return it for a full refund (even including return postage!) might be worth you checking out

Wunderlich advertise the 60 days refund but I dont see Nippy Normans advertising it. I've just ordered the high seat to try and go from there.
 
FYI Jay, I’ve had to order a taller screen as increasing the seat height exposed me to more turbulence that I expected with the standard screen on my GS1300. I was kind of expecting it, but not as much. WRS on its way. I’m keeping the high seat and will be selling the standard Wunderlich comfort seat.
 
I didn’t have to buy a fitting kit for rear on my bike. The standard bmw rear works fine with Wunderlich high comfort seat. I have a 2025 triple black although I can’t imagine that makes any difference.

I dont have the screen up anyhow, I end up getting turbulence in just about every position so usually have the screen in the lowered position. They have come down a bit on Nippy Normans so Ive ordered it to give it a try. I have the standard height and its beginning to nip a bit now I've lost some padding and I have the high bars on this bike so hope it all comes together.
