Thats who i bought mine from, very helpfull people when i delt with them. It took about 6 weeks for delivery as they didn't have one in stock. You could try you luck on ebay but they don't often come up for sale second hand.

Just out of interest have you tried sitting on one? I find it much better than stock but others didn't as the seating position changes, it would be alot of money to spend to find you don't get on with it. Have a look at this thread,

thats good advice thanks! i havent tried one no. if i can find one i will.

i have seen 1066 customs, but frankly their markup just for importing the things is taking the :cens: £115 more for $38 shipping charge and at most £20 in customs tax!

i have my eye on a 2nd hand one atm.
out of interest, how does it change the seating position? tilt, height, width??

i saw this picture too. which apparently is a baglux comfort seat...

I know what you mean but i don't think its that bad, corbin list price in the states $359 = £188, then add the VAT = £220, price at 1066 = £294, which leaves £74 for shipping and profit. The bit i could never understand with 1066 is they list different prices for the two seats available for monsters but they cost the same on the corbin website :dunce:

My arse decided for me and ordered me to buy one and i've not regreted it since :p

The seating positions further back away from the tank, this has the knock on of the handle bars being further away etc.

Good luck in getting the second hand one.

Cheers,

I have a black sargent seat for this model i'm selling for £90.00.
In terms of riding position It's flatter,wider, and slightly lower.
Underneath it has 4 fold out bungee hooks, which is neat, and a recess for shoving waterproofs in.
If you're interested give me a PM.
Cheers.

Steve,

I have PM'd you my email for some piccies.
What condition is it in? how old? Why are you selling out of interest.

I don't know the age as it came with the bike which i only bought 2nd hand last year. I'm selling as i now use clip-ons and rearsets and the std. seat is better for that position. Condition is excellent and it was comfy all the way to south of france last year. I had to cut a 20 mm slot in the underside where it interfered with my datatool alarm but its OK. I sent you some pics. Cheers.
