redrover Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 My dealer had the comfort seat in stock when I bought my bike, so I had them put it on. I am very happy with the comfort seat; it has a nice grippy texture, seems more resilient than stock, firm but not hard. The comfort seat has a nice red contrast stitching, which suits my red bike, but may not be the best look for the other colors... I didn't have a problem with the stock seat; the comfort seat is just nicer. Dimensions are the same as the stock seat, mounts the same, etc. 6 2015 FZ-07 2013 TU250X - Sold!

Global Moderator mjh937 Posted September 3, 2014 Global Moderator Share Posted September 3, 2014 I may have to do that. It would look sharp on my red bike too. Any chance you could post a picture from the side so I can get an idea of the seat thickness? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member GAZ Posted September 3, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted September 3, 2014 With the stock seat, first little bit never bothers me. After about 2 hours is where it starts to suck. Do you have a part number for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Here in Canada, part # is 1WS-247C0-10-00. That looks good. Definitely interested in more pictures (from the side?) if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmucat Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Would love this with blue stitching. What's the cost and is it any thicker than the stock one or just different material? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance you could post a picture from the side so I can get an idea of the seat thickness? Thanks. here ya go; not a seat specific photo when I set up the shot, but it may be useful to you. I compared the stock seat which I kept, and the comfort seat and they are dimensionally identical, thickness, et al. 1 2015 FZ-07 2013 TU250X - Sold!

Great to have the part number to help with the search since it dosen't seem to show on the U.S. Yamaha accessory catalog. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkfall Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I just got mine in the mail today. Looks and feels really nice, much better than the stock seat. I found a few dealers on ebay that carry them. Mine was $267.84 after tax and shipping to California.

enels57 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 The bike I test drove must have had the comfort seat on it....I noticed the difference about 5 minutes after taking delivery of my bike....I thought...."hey, wait a dang minute, this is not the same seat I remember sitting on"........

Premium Member crazycracka501 Posted December 8, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted December 8, 2014 Wish they offered one without the red stitching. My bike has nothing red on it except the preload shock and that's gonna change shortly. Make it stop!....Now make it go faster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vodapas Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 To those of you who either own or have seen this seat in person: is the top (seating) surface suede like or is it just textured leather? It definitely has a more premium look to it. But, my biggest gripe about the factory seat is sliding around on it too much. So, if I'm going to spend $250 to replace a brand new seat it has to have that major improvement. I really appreciate any first hand info you can provide. Thanks!

So, if I'm going to spend $250 to replace a brand new seat it has to have that major improvement. I really appreciate any first hand info you can provide. Thanks!I bought it for the same reason as you. Both seats are both textured man-made fabric. The comfort surface is less shiny, may be thicker material, and may have a more coarse finish, but I can't discern any differences in surface friction by running a finger over it. I haven't ridden on it yet so I can't tell if differences in the foam part helps to prevent sliding around or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
