Re: [ST] Replacement seats



I have found that better pants make a bigger difference than any seat.  When I have the insulated liner in my Olympia Air Glide pants, I can ride fro MUCH longer in comfort than without.  
 
I have posted this before, but I have tried the Corbin, the Sargent, and a custom Sargent.  The two Sargent's have the place for tools under the seat - the Corbin does not.  I found the Corbin to be the hardest and worst of the three.  I've had Corbin's before too, and while the do break-in, I don't feel the change is drastic.  If I were to go with a pre-fabricated, I would get the Sargent WorldSport.  But for a similar price, you can send Sargent a stock seat pan, and get a custom.  That's what I have now after going through the pre-fabricated ones, and it is by far the best.
 
Any other specifics of comparing the stock, Corbin, Sargent, and Sargent custom, feel free to ask.  Been there - done that.....

I agree!  I put a Sargent seat on my ST ~6,000 miles ago and don't 
regret it one bit.  Of course I also wear motorcycle shorts when I go 
long distances.  I have a few pair of these and am quite happy with them.
