hi, i've read a lot about aftermarket seats for the r1150r on this message board and i'm trying to make a decision as to which one to get. i'm leaning towards the sargent seat. i was wondering if anyone who has a pic of their bike with an aftermarket seat could post pics. to me, it's hard to tell wh...
