acesand8s Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Anyone ever tried one of these from Italy? https://www.tappezzeriaitalia.it/gb/tracer-900-15-17/770-seat-yamaha-mt-09-tracer-model-chianti-tb.html#/723-mt_logo-no_logo/20-seams-seams_blu Looks like a memory foam/embroidered seat cover that slips over the stock foam and seat pan. I searched and didn't see anyone mention these covers, but have seen some people have rocked similar covers from MotoK in Greece, Seat Concepts here in the states, and Luimoto from Canada.

Where as these Italian covers appear to be the cover and memory foam pad. Luimoto offers a "Gold Gel" insert, but it's an additonal $140 on top of the $250 for the front and passenger cover.

We are all different, and seats are highly subjective, but my experience with the Luimoto Gold Gel insert was that quite simply it made next to no difference. But my desperation with the atrocious OE seat made it worth a try. I ended up - on two Gen 1 Tracers - purchasing seats from BAGSTER (France). Not cheap at around AUD$540 delivered, but bliss - like a magic carpet ride! Riding a fully-farkled 2019 MT-09 Tracer 900 GT from my bayside home in South East Queensland, Australia.
