Any experience with both seats guys?

Padding 'looks' more substantial on MK II but could be the embroidery in images.

I know nothing beats custom made for me but if I was getting one from Norton to start with.

Thanks guys.
 
The stock seat, any of them ...... is horrible as far as comfort goes. Looks cool tho.
 
The cover can be removed and a thicker gel pad can be installed. I personally don't find the seat that horrible. But then again, I didn't ride cross country. The most I've done is 250 in a day.
 
Hello , Ever consider an Air Hawk ? I send in pictures of mine. For those taller guys who can spare that 1/2 inch of seat height
 
Hi Tony,

Yes for much longer rides I have an airhawk (amazing comfort).
But just for day to day commute since I was converting to single seat had option of older vs newer seat.

Think will go with reupholster with gel pad etc.

Thanks all.

Hi Britfan , If you can do 250 in a day , and I mean gas and go not 1 hour stops . Then you can tour on it.

By far the BEST looking seat is the MK2 . When the bike is for show put the MK2 seat on. The Mk1 feels better to me but it is more broken in , they are both the same width . It may not seem like it in the photo. Its hard to argue with that logo..
