P and P seats did the seat on my Guzzi and made a lovely job of it. If you just wanted to fit gel pads, they're not too bad to do yourself. There's a how to in the knowledge base that I put together some years ago.

If you need the bike daily while having the seat done then there's a spare somewhere that you can "borrow".

 

I think TDMick has it at the moment...just need to cover postage to you, then the next person who needs it pays the postage from you to them...

Just riding a weekends doesn't make it namby pamby :P

If anything as I commute on mine I'm probably more so that weekend riders

 

I'm sure an 850 owner will be along shortly to say something about us being 9er riders and all "namby-pamby"

just mentioning - www.topsellerie.com - upgrade your seat with a "delver-your-old-seat-afterwards" type service. you don't need to send them your seat before you got theirs. Very good seats as well, but maybe on the pricey side ?
