Hey all. Just on the American Sport Bike website checking out the Saddlemen seats. Anyone run one of these? I was looking at the 17323-TR Gel Channel Track seat. I will assume they are better than stock but is it an appreciable difference or not really worth the money. Was looking at the seat retention pins too for convenience. Any and all opinions are welcome.

I have the 17323-TRCF and all I can say is good things about it. The channel definitely helps out. The only thing is I can't stand flat footed with pants on anymore.

I made my own seat pins with 1/4-20 x 2" stainless bolts and a dremel tool.

I haven't seen the seat in person yet, but so far the reviews are overall positive on the new Saddlemen seats.

The retention pin kit is a must, it is a pain in the ass to unscrew the two screws every time you need to take the seat off (especially with a thicker aftermarket seat), the pins make it quick and easy.
