OK- I hope this eBay item isn't from anyone here...

Been looking for a seat other than the one that came on my RS two years ago. Came across this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-K75-100-RS-RT-motorcycle-seat-fits-1986-and-Newer_W0QQitemZ280360755499QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorcycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item4146cda12b&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C72%3A1171%7C240%3A1318#ebayphotohosting

HOLEE final drive, Batman- $52 for UPS shipping??? I don't want the entire bike shipped to me, just the seat.....



Below is my current seat.....



Hey, anyone out there have something other than this (my seat)?

I have the reverse problem of most- I need a taller seat/bike- my inseam is 35". Currently at a stop my feet are flat on the pavement with my knees very bent. I would like a seat that DOES NOT have a lowered rider position.

But I'm NOT buying something that costs $50+ just for shipping.

Drake or anybody else- have a stock seat?? I will buy- or swap- (my seat is comfortable, if my legs were much shorter). Anyone??

That's how a lot of ebayers make their money, a reasonable price on the goods and a ridiculous price on the shipping.

I bought this seat from Rydor but I have so many seats I haven't gotten around to using it. Seems like it would be good for a tall inseam. PM me if you're interested in it

Here's the seat:

Not defending the seller here. I shipped a seat to the west coast, $35 ups.
Would your time be worth $20 to pack and drive to the ups store to send?

Just my opinions on shipping expences. Shippers are getting very expensive now compared to a few years ago.

johnny,

Sorry for the diss. Obviously a miss diss. Embarassed

I have seen several different styles of "stock" seat. Can you shoot me a picture of what you have?

Inquiring butts wanna' know.

Yeah- "pennies to maintain"- LOTS & LOTS of pennies Laughing

John I have a stock seat that I like all right but the only other one I've sat on was a quilted number that I think was stock on a '97 LT which I didn't like. Maybe we should er, see if we like each others seats better before you buy.


maybe we should just swap the clocks back and just swap bikes Smile Smile

I have a STOCK RS seat covered in absolutely hideous red vinyl.

I CAN't BELEIVE I actually kinda liked it at first. OTG siad it looked like an inflammed Baboons @$$. Lasted three months till I got a Corbin, which BTY fits PERFECT and looks BEAUTIFUL! Many many others have had terrible service from Corbin

It's yours FREE if you want it. I will visit my local USPS and find the cheapest way to ship it. Your original hardware should fit. My bike is a 93.

Red seat.




New Corbin

The Duck is correct. This is the perfect seat for a tall guy, very comfy.
