Has anyone tried this? Is it worth the money? I heard that it is far better than gel seats.

$94.99 seems somewhat ridiculous for that. I'd rather spend my funds on fuel, food, or lodging on a trip.

You can make a nice seat/seat-cover yourself using memory foam & marine-vinyl for just a few bucks & get the same result/effect.

 

I use one on long trips. I get called an old man, but whatever. I found one used for cheap from Craigslist. It doesn't work well with seats that push you forward more than a normal seat would. I used it on my VFR and ZZR600, and it felt like I was riding a sofa. Very comfortable for eating up highway miles. NOT recommended for aggressive/sport riding, because it will make you feel like you're swishing around on a waterbed when on switchbacks and stuff. I'd say it's mainly for eating up miles. But when you want to do some sport riding, it's best to take it off because it'll feel weird.

 

Hey, thanks for the input Scotty, very informative. Makes a lot of sense. @Gotcbr: LOL I feel ya on that, but I'm a 40 year old man that wants comfort whenever I can find it LOL

 

Ha! Understood!

Not saying *not* to use something for comfort but perhaps think outside the box for monetary savings w/ similar results.

If you don't get the above, hope you find something suitable. Good luck shopping.
