    My healers (red and blue) never were much for chewing stuff, but I had a lab or two that could chew up sheet metal, plywood, bricks, motor cycle tires, rocks, three tab roofing,shoulder harness straps, boat trailer wiring etc etc.:D

    Hard to beat SC seats. I have four.

    Yep, you guessed it, she's a Bluey. Hasn't chewed anything for a long time, must have been a bit jealous.

    The Red I had was a whole bunch dingo.
    For example he would breed with the local coyotes and he was a hell of a fighter.
    oops I slipped off topic again so let me add that import air staplers are only 20$ on sale and can be used for other tasks.

    There must be something about our personalities that attract us to Husky's and Heelers. Check out my blue boy Waylon on my 511 in my avatar.

    Handsome dude, mine were flop eared. Thing about healers is that a real one is a bit wild and hard to predict (you most likely know this) at times.
    We a had horses and a few cattle around and loved to see them work.

    To get back on topic: I have a low SC seat on my TE450 and 610 and like them both.:thumbsup:

    Love an ACD, I used to look after one long time back, she was the first litter in the UK back then. But other half say they are ugly, I said try looking in the mirror :love:

    Anybody having Seat Concepts seat for Terra/Strada, may do a favour and make a close-up photo of the cover ? Before buying one, I would like to see what thy're using for cover...

    Thanks in advance.

    I have gripper tops and carbon fibre sides on all of mine (3). Just ordered the same in std height for the 310. I am not tall but prefer having my feet as low as possible to make things more comfortable and to make standing easier. Old knees! Will take a photo when I get home unless someone beats me to it.

    How do you find gripper top ? Does not prevent moving around on the seat ?

    Is this the one:

    That's it! No problem moving around and you don't slide when you don't want to.

    I went for the carbon non skid cover with red trim, This is the trick, I don't like sliding in the seat.

    I have the taller seat and it is OK. I read somewhere that a more firm type foam can be requested at time of order. Had I been aware of this option I would have done this as the standard foam is a bit soft. Also get the seat cover that has some grip to it. I got the regular cover and I am forever sliding forward.

    I think gripper fabric is ok but..(IMHO) in the summer when you are hot and sweaty I think it gets a bit too grippy.

    Yes better than the original by far, best with the grippy top cover, you can endure more miles on the bike than stock that's for sure.

    I am extremely happy with my Seat Concepts, yes indeed.

    Bought the standard tall version, but it was too tall and too soft.

    The fine SC folks swapped me out foam for a +1 firmer version in Tall.

    I then custom cut & shaved about 1" off the height for something "in-between" which was more to my liking.

    It's wonderful! I can ride all day, no problem. In fact, rode 13 days in a row along the CDR back in September, covering 4,500 miles with no significant butt discomfort. I actually like it better than my Renazco on my F800(which I like a lot, by the way).
