Still have NOT been on the bike long enough to form an honest opinion and will try to get a 500 KM trip in someday soon. This is what Janice did to my Renazco seat from my BMW 650GS. Trimmed the width by the nose and added a gel pad…Once I get some seat time I will let Janice as well as everyone else know what I think of the “new” and improved level of comfort.
Janice from Slim Signature Seats delivered my seat via her bicycle today via the pouring rain. More when I have the build pictures and my review of the new improved seat with gel insert.
More to come…….

I was fortunate to be able to ride down to AltRider in Seattle and have them graciously install my bars and light guard. Today, I went to see Janice aka Slim who will be working on my Renazco seat off my 650. Janice will try to customize my seat with foam trimming and adding a gel pad. WE are hoping to drop my seat height by 1/2 inch from the OEM low seat. Cross you fingers this works.
