Looking for options for after market or rebuilt stock seats for a 99 x1. I am 6'3" 235 in the stock seat my butt is sore after a short ride, and more importantly my thighs are sour from sliding into the front of the seat. Only thing I found so far is Corbin, any reviews? Anything else available? |

I have a 2000X1 and the seat is pretty beat for so many miles. So I bought a new seat from a badwebber. It it was a 1999 seat but it fit fine and looked mint. Problem: hard as a rock! I ended up putting my old seat on. Is yours hard? Perhaps it is a 1999 trait. |

Have a local shop put a piece of gel under the cover, or better yet take the staples out of the bottom of the seat that hold the cover on, peel the cover back, slap the gel in there, pull the cover back over tight and re staple it. just like a dirt bike or quad seat cover |

Ok, where would I get the GEL for this project?
