Does anyone have this seat from American Sports Bike? Any input? I need to replace the stock seat which sucks especially on long rides.. 17323-TH - Seat, Gel Channel Tech, for XB-R Firebolt and 1125 Series Any other better seat options lets me know, but so far I like this seat but I dont know any real user experience. Please let me know, thanks! |

Al recommended the 17323-SP - Seat, Gel Channel Sport, which I bought Great seat, better than stock by a good margin. In fact, mine was destroyed when my bike was totaled last month, and I have another seat on back order right now You won't be disappointed, imo |

Cool, I was looking at both options in American Sport Bike website, 17323, padded Gel and the Gel Channel one. I may go to the gell and never look back~ Thanks |

I got the channel option because the Buell factory "comfort" seat was giving me a pain right in the middle of "down there" just due to its/my shape. No problem now, unlike that guy in the news recently about his BMW giving him an ongoing boner. I think he was just kinda funny like that. BMW rider and all.. |

I have the tech seat on my 1125r...absolutely love it. no comparison between it and the stock seat..can ride for hours without any discomfort. Go buy it...get the quick release bolt kit as well..brilliant invention. |

Doesnt the channel fill up with water on rainy days? I ride in the rain often enough that it could be a deal breaker. |

Hmm, I did ride in the rain with mine, but I had no issues I don't recall if it sat parked in the rain or not |
