Have you guys seen this:

http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show .cgi?tpc=32777&post=2108336#POST2108336

After the hoopla that resulted from the attempted, prolonged but unsuccessful group-buy last summer, I thought these would spark a feeding frenzy.

So, in case you don't venture into the XBoard, here you go.

Just to clarify..
They ALL have gel inserts in the foam on either side of the perineum channel. The Tech also has memory foam (think tempurpedic mattress) bumps strategically located on the top for additional padding. The open perineum channel on the other three seat is also there on the Tech, but the covering material is stretched across the channel on the Tech model.

Well I got mine today, it is on already and road to the gas station and it feels way better than the stock seat. We will see how it feels this weekend on a long ride.

Does anyone know how these compare, as far as comfort goes, to a Baldwin or the Buell touring seat?

Just got my seat installed. I went with the sport model. Very comfortable. My only gripe is the seat is about a half inch to short. As it is I can see a gap along the back edge of the seat allowing me to see the shock and other ugly bits.

Looks great! that's the seat i was thinking of...

My only concern is what 1sympleman said - is it short and can you see below to the shock? Possible to take a pic?

Thanks!!

Yeah, if it's short enough to see the shock, that's a deal breaker for me. I like my Corbin, but it still hurts my ass after a full day of riding.

My new seat fits great, no problems with fitment. If 1sympleman has a problem he needs to contact Al at American Sport Bike.
