Default anyone notice a difference in turning with the banana seat vs the 2 seats?

I thought I heard somwhere that the with the 2001-2003 version it will turn in quicker and feels more flickable cause its less narrower than the banana seat..anyone?

Who cares about the turn in??? The split seat looks 1000000000X better than the banana so change it over LOL

The seat dosent effect turn in.

If you want to change the seat, it will be because of looks or comfort.

To me it does feel as if I can grip the tank better with my legs with the split seat arrangement.

i am going to do the 01-03 swap in winter (also new painted fairings and rimstripe). I have already the undertray, which came with a CW fender eliminator kit and shortstalks (ebay $45)
