@ Deilenberger : i thought that you were testing an after market product from this factory ? Did the testing was positive when compared to other after market products ? Would you recommend this product ?
Did 900 kilometers with the wife, and she hates the 1200R saddle. True : after about 150 km or so, my butt hurts also. Gonna have to do something about it.
greetings,
Peter

Peter - no, I haven't done any saddle tests. I'm riding on a Sargent, which is fine for my very painful butt when used with a FreedomAir cushion (seems to take 3 days of straight riding for my butt to forget to be painful.. go figure.. trick is - put the FreedomAir on the seat before it gets sore..)
I owned several Russells on other bikes, and if I could abide the look on the R12R there would be one on it. The Sargent is still better than the BMW was - and the price is reasonable (with the magic discount - around $300 or so..)
