[ST] Triumph Sprint ST Seat - Triumph Rally

["robertr" <robertr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Last week received a new Sargent Seat for the ST and is it great!

I had heard that some weren't totally happy with the early version,
however spoke to Richard at Sargent who said they had made a slight
change to the profile as a result of feedback.

Last weekend I rode 3 hours in atrocious conditions to the Triumph Rally
at Bathurst here in OZ. Apart from the fact that the ST is a dog in
70-80 knot gusting cross winds it was an incredible ride. Hopped off at
the other end with sore head, arms etc from fighting the bike to stay on
the road, but the bum was just fine! (other ST riders on the rally had
similar problems with the wind).

On the Saturday, had a group ride to a small town 3/4 hour from Bathurst
at high velocity. Nice mix of open road, tight corners and a mountain
section - loved the seat even more. The Sprint keeps up with all the go
fast boys on their rockets. Arrived in the first group of 10 (out of
approx 120 bikes)

Return to Sydney on the Sunday was at speed and uneventful. The seat was
great. Did arrive with one problem... The left hand bar has developed a
creak - must get that looked at.

Recently installed a Wolf undertail exhaust - not bad sound, but a bit
too loud, and difficult installation. Looks the part though!
