2014 xc300 seat ideas and bar riser idaes

[vtskier]

Hi all,

The seat on this thing is so hard! What have people done? Can I buy new foam and install? Brands?

I also need to raise the bars. Any recommendations on which bar risers will work? Are risers a standard size stud for all bikes?

Thanks!

Guts

Hi,
Guts seat foam are super.
You can have medium, soft or hard.
Soft is not too soft and hard is not too hard, they are small variations on the optimum firmness, so they are all good.
If I have any seat issues on a new bike I allways get Guts seat foam.
Then you can choose different heights and seat covers to get exactly what you want.
I don't work for them, I only refuse to use a bad seat. Life is too short for that.
Good luck,
Fred

I had a new Guts tall soft seat on my 07 gasser and it was better than the seats on my older bikes. I now have a Fisher seat on my 2011 bike and it is a lot better than the Guts seat was. I know it's more costly but if you sit a lot the foam of a Seat Concepts or Fisher seat is really worth the difference. My buddy who rides Beta had Seat Concepts seat on his 300 RR and kept the seat when he sold his bike. He then put it on his xtrainer which he rode for a year and sold. He kept the seat again to put on his next beta.
