K&H Seat in Southern California?
#1



Hey guys,

I am strongly considering getting a K&H seat. However I recently got burned by purchasing a Corbin and then not being pleased with the riding posture of the seat. So before I drop a ton of money to have Mt. T ship me a K&H from Samurider, I was wanting to take a look at one in person!

The question: Does anyone know a way to look at a K&H seat in Southern California?

Are there any dealers or shops that sell them? Does anyone have one in the area that would be willing to let me take a look at it? Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Tom

Not sure which K&H you're looking at, but if it's the "classic style" model, I have the nearly identical Tiro K0 style on my bike, which is extremely comfortable, and would be happy to let you try it on for size. I'm in the IE, between Redlands and Palm Springs. Just an option -

I really appreciate the offer, but I specifically want to try out the foam of a K&H and see how it feels. I like stock look of the Mid Double Sheet B, but I need to know how comfortable it is!

Everybody has a different idea of what is comfortable. My V-Strom is the most comfortable stock seat I've ridden on - wide, flat, deep. Also notice that most V-Stroms, even high mileage ones have stock seats. Have you considered modifying your original seat? I added foam to the sides and top of the front area, improved comfort quite a bit. Kept the stock cover and spent less than a Benjamin.

I already tried the Corbin seat, and unfortunately I just did not care for the ergonomics.
