Hey yourban riders,

I was just wondering if anyone had fitted one of these to their bike and if there was any difference from the stock seat.

I had the Shad comfort seat on my 125 which was brilliant and was in two minds to either get the yourban comfort seat or have a custom bike seat company use the Shad seat to redo my stock seat.

Any information would be appreciated.

I have the OEM Gel Seat on my MP3/250, and I think it is Wonderful.
Purchased from easyparts.nl
Let me see if I have a picture and I will add to my post.

Personally, i really like the shad seat on my friends bike, but i'd prefer something with back support for my 250. I have a very leaned back riding style and i would me much more comfortable. Still rocking the stock seat right now om my own bike.

Thanks guys for the responses.

I think getting the seat redone would probably be my best option as I like sitting back further as I have long legs and arms.

The little hump just digs into my back and after having years of suffering from slipped discs, the little channel on the Shad relieved a lot of pressure when spending hours on the bike.

I think I'll order the comfort seat and see how it feels once fitted. Only problem I'm having is no shop has any of them and there is a 6-8 week wait.
