[ST] Gel seat impression

Awhile back I asked here about Corbin and Sargent seats and didn't get much
positive response. Since then, Triumph came out with their own gel seat. I
bought one a couple of weeks ago $215 and did a 350 miler Saturday morning
and like the seat with one exception. I live in Arizona "HOT" in summers.
The seat is great as long as it's covered while the bike is at gas & rest
stops but absorbs heat worse than the stocker when left in the sun.
I'm also getting Genmar risers (when the dealer gets them in) and recently
rigged a semi permanent radar detector via the BMW plug via cigarette
lighter adapter.
BTW, for those who feel I'm a MEAN Triumph zealot, below is a photo of my
latest GSXR mini sport touring mods. Convertabars; up 3", back 1.5", pegs
down 1.5" and a home made windshield extender. All mods are portable and can
be returned to stock within minutes.

Evidence of fun ride
PS. I've never sworn either in E-mail or on this list at anyone, much less
even responded to the nasty emails or personal attacks here of my recent
distractor currently riding a Blackbird.
