Hi All,

Bought a 2015 super tenere that had an OEM seat that was shaved down for the short person that previously owned it but its quite uncomfortable as the foam is thin. Looking for an original untouched seat.

Let me know what you have!

Things to consider. Both have a great reputation. It boils down to time and cost. Shipping plays a role. I have a Russel, great seat, next time around Terrys he is cheaper closer and faster turnaround. I live in NC.

I have a brandnew spare OEM 1200 Tenere seat that I only used to ride 250 miles home from the dealer where I bought my 2018 Tenere from.
Price is $70 plus whatever it costs to ship it, I already have a box to ship it in.

You may be right the phone number does not seem to work. The website is still up and running. Well Russel then I guess. The number is 931/842/2620. Perhaps my cell is having a problem with the number. Maybe someone else could try,

You have a PM. What seat did you end up going with to replace the stocker?

First bought a used Corbin that I liked fine except for on long rough roads then the seat became to firm for me.
Then I bought a used Rider Day Long seat, it’s a great seat but its taller and makes me wish my legs were a little longer.

Yeah, I have a corbin that came with the bike (not sure if its shaved also id have to pull the cover off) but found it super firm and WAY to slippery. Im actually curious on the seat concepts seat foam / cover replacement too.

Seems like lots of folks like Seat Concepts but thankfully I traded seats with a friend and got to ride on one for 180 miles and didn’t like it, was very happy to get back on my Corbin, and as someone already mentioned yes the Corbin is too slippery.

Thanks for posting the link, I watched all 4 videos, which cover did you order for your Corbin drivers seat ? I just might order one someday.
Honestly don't remember, too long ago. It was big enough to cover both rider and pass seat though. Great product, you get airflow under your biscuits on the hottest days.....nice. Actually had to take it off for winter riding because my ass would literally freeze in cold weather.

Looks like a very nice setup Tenere, what tankbag is that and how is it mounted ?
