On the foam, it's difficult to tell a lot just by pushing on it. My other SC seats have been very comfortable for long rides, so I am expecting this one to be similar. All reports are that the stock seat is good too, but I wanted it a bit flatter. I would have liked the back hump to be reduced, but after looking at it, I think it's OK as it provides a good surface for my duffel, level with the rack.
The red stitching is nice Did you pay the extra $$$ to have them install it or did you do it yourself? I had a SC seat on my KLR....very nice quality
Nice is a bit of understatement... they look factory ! You sure dont want to earn some extra cash Mr. Fab ?!
Tons of great work you guys have done on your Terra's. I am happy NOT to see 4" abs sewer pipe converted in to tool tubes anywhere on your Terra's.
Im here....just still all butt hurt about the cleatcoat over decals mess I made :-( Bars look amazing dude! If you do go for the safari talk and they do play well together, you know you can offload them here quickly
Terrific work Fab! I just don't know how it could be done any better. As to my seat cover installation: I realized right away that my hand stapler would not let me place staples down in the deep valleys of the pan. I had to either go buy a pneumatic stapler and a box of staples, or get some help. I have a friend who is into classic cars and thru him met his upholsterer. I did the prep work of removing the old cover and foam, and stood back while a pro did the installation (took no time at all). He had all the tools, glue, tape, etc. So yeah, I cheated!
Safari, I think, makes some tanks for the KTM that mount on the side, up front. Or, they could mount to the side in the rear. I'm very curious as what they decided to do. This doesn't appear to be an easy bike when it comes to adding fuel capacity. Whatever they come up with, it probably won't help the appearance, although I think the Safari on my 630 looks pretty good. Protects the radiators too!
Got my bags all mounted up. I like these a good bit better than the ortiliebs I used on the v strom plenty of clearance from the pipes Thanks for all your help. Sorry, it seems my photography skills are second only to my welding in suckage. Still need to lengthen the kickstand.
