Ryujin Seat Review

[CB4ME_imp]

Rboe...it was expensive...¥82,500 total, which includes a ¥5,000 seat hight adjustment to 31.2 inches (795mm) and ¥5,000 for shipping. BTW, I didn't attempt to delete the Ryujin logo (two kanji characters and the words "Ryujin Japan", so it's embroidered (in silver) into the lip of the seat).

Papa...while it admittedly appears to sit slightly higher than the stock seat in the photo I posted, I don't feel it...in fact, when I first sat on it, I thought it positioned me lower...possibly because it's shaped differently than the stock seat (i.e., it's shaped more like a sport bike seat, which is just what I wanted). My final conclusion is that the Ryujin positions me at the same height as the stock seat.

Again, different strokes for different folks...to me, the stock 2013 CB1100 looks sufficiently retro and I've focused all my modifications to push it a couple notches in the direction of a sport bike.

You paid dearly for that Ryujin label - it denotes the top of the top of the line.

Speaking of Ryujin, they used Magical Racing mirrors on some of their bikes. I took the plunge and have a tiny bit of Ryujin on my bike.

Now take some more pictures of your Bike!!!
