docsimple Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Hey y'all, Remember just recently the FJ that had been dirtified? Went at auction for some ridiculous sum? Yeah, that one! Very sexy bike that had me wondering, where the hell did they get that seat? It looked great but didn't have many good shots so I hunted down the manufacturer and got some additional pics and info: We offer a Gel-Core upgrade and a new cover for the FJ-09. We just finished one up for Kenny Roberts and he loves it. It will set you back $350 and you will need to send your stock in as we retrofit the stock baseplates. https://www.saddlemen.com/ Seems legit, I will get one when this eason is over. I can't help bu try stuff other than the big manufacturers. They could be better! and, also, the $350 covers front and back if anyone grabs one first let me know! 2015 Red FJ 09 2013 WR250R - little boy blue - sold 2012 DL650 V Strom - sold 2007 FZ6 - sold 1986 FJ600 - sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeg Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Interesting, this company popped up on the local forum when someone was looking for suggestions for replacement seat for the multistrada. They don't have the FJ on their drop-down but it might be the site is not up to date yet. Funny the FJ is the first bike that made me start thinking of a different seat after all of the 150 virgin miles. And all that stitching ??

docsimple Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 it is not on the website yet but I emailed with someone there (the owner, I think). The stiching is so you get the butt air flow and they contain the cooling gel pads. Recently tried that gel pad in a car cushion and worked pretty well, but no guarantee its the same stuff. 2015 Red FJ 09 2013 WR250R - little boy blue - sold 2012 DL650 V Strom - sold 2007 FZ6 - sold 1986 FJ600 - sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeg Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Anyone has tried the seat from them (Saddlemen) yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koth442 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I've heard of them before, they have a great reputation. $350 for both is very do-able. '15 FJ09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
