Title: In Search of... LMI, LMII, or CX100 seat
Post by: Mayor_of_BBQ on May 04, 2022, 08:55:21 AM: Hello all,

I am looking for a stock seat, or a stock recovered seat, or a stock seatpan for LMI,II,or CX100

I bought a CX100 and it has a Corbin than needs major surgery to be acceptable. I will get to it eventually but in the meantime I need a seat that's not a total eyesore and that my wife can ride pillion on...

It works well with the standard riding position, spreading weight across the length of your thighs and allowing you to move around a bit. I've done countless 500-600 miles days on mine.

Same with mine though I now use beads or sheep skin for long rides. I have the stock seats on the LMI and the CX, at one time I had the Gaman seat on the CX for about a week and then I ditched it as it was hard as a rock.

I have a Corbin now, it's good too. Original? like a knotty pine 2x6 :angry: with splinters.

I must have gotten a bad one as it was a rock and two of my friends rode the bike and they thought the same thing as me.

I might have been enjoying the 948cc power and the tone of those BUB mufflers and didn't notice the pain in my ass :grin:
