    anyone come across a good gel seat pad to use for long trips or a replacement seat brand name you suggest? If you wouldn't mind sharing a brand name or website I would appreciate it. i like my stock seat for short trail rides but looking for ideas for long multi day rides that might offer some relief. Thanks again for any help!

    I have a SeatConcepts on my TE610 - they sent me a new foam and cover, which I installed on the stock seat pan (you remove the stock cover and foam, then staple-gun on the new). Works well. I also have an AirHawk Cruiser Pillion (9x11), which I use when I am going on an extended motorway trip. Taken together, they definitely extend the amount of time I can comfortably go between stops on the motorway. If the road is curvy, I do fine with just the SeatConcepts.

    Do they do a seat for the 630 that is not quite as wide (leaning closer to stock width) and taller? Taller is what I'm really after. I looked at their site and it doesn't appear so. I sure don't mind reaching out to them, but thought I'd ask here also.

    They'll do anything you want. Their standard 630 seat is still stock width in the front half, but roughly stock height. They've even made step seats.
