Wintersdark Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 So I'm looking at seats, and Bagster has been well recommended. Does anyone have experience comparing the Ready vs. Ready Luxe line of seats? Is the increased cost of the Ready Luxe worth it? They seem pretty similar, but the Ready Luxe has "Bultex" foam. That's just words to me, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wintersdark Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 Well, got impatient and just ordered the Luxe version. It was about $100 more, but I figured if I was going to be spending that much (350/450CAD) I may as well go all in. And really, even at $450, I figured it was a pretty good deal; seats cost, and having a wrecked old seat redone cheaply was still ultimately $150-$200ish, so a decent custom job on this would probably weigh in around $300, with no guarantee as to how good it'd be vs Bagster who basically are *the* aftermarket seat manufacturer worldwide. Here's hoping it ends up as good as people say they are! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garybinnyc Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Received mine about two months ago, couldn’t be happier especially on long rides.. I suffered with the stock seat.. I ride two up quite a bit and even The passenger is significantly happier with the large pile on that’s incredibly comfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRFan250 Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 I am shocked people like the Bagster seats...you all must be light fellars, lol. I took mine off after 10 mins in the saddle as the seat foam is way way too soft for me and it felt like I was sitting on the seat pan!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man if that seat had some firmer foam it would be a keeper though! I broke down and ordered a Sargent.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up cancelling my order, as my wife backed into my bike shortly after placing it. Ended up using that money to replace a broken kickstand and body panels. TBH, from what I've heard, it's probably for the best. I'm a very big guy (300 lbs, before gear) so it doesn't sound like it'd have been a good buy for me.

I broke down and ordered a Sargent.... I went from a Sargent to a Bagster. Sargent was definitely better than stock, but the foam to the rear of the seat was just too thin for me. Hopefully it works perfectly for you! '15 FJ-09 w/ lots of extras... Fayetteville, GA, USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had many Sargent seats and I am familiar.....they mostly have been very comfy for me and I pray this one is too, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReSTored Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Purchased my new-to-me 2019 Tracer GT last season and it came with a Bagster seat. How can you tell if it is a standard Ready seat vs. the upgraded one, the Ready Luxe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
