I believe it`s an original base that`s been utilised and some rather nice, thick seat foam has been used, followed by a custom made cover. Nice job they`ve made of it too, does away with the bum stop which I personally don`t like too much anyway. Another clue to the seat being recoverd and modded is that the rear seat has DEFINATELY got more padding in it too.

hey thats my bike :lol: the seat has 4NX moulded into the base. the seat cover looks original and untouched even tho the rear has about 50mm more padding than stock and is a very ordinary recover...mike

Well Ritza it`s a nice job but DEFINATELY not standard, there`s no seperate bum stop.
I suspect a reworked foam and a custom made cover. :wink:
