kmac Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I was thinking Freddie Spencer... I had a Freddie Specer replica Arai helmet years ago...does that count? I hand built my own seat...Macerized? Link to comment
biometrics Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I read on one of the forums yesterday that Spenser is no longer rebuilding BMW OEM seats because the seat pan is prone to split and that he was also injured by such a split while recovering a BMW seat. I sent him an email yesterday afternoon asking if this story was true, but as of yet, he has not answered. How recent was your contact with him? Thanks -John Link to comment
PAS Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He reworked the comfort seat on my 1150RT the first week of July and its great! Link to comment

BMWRich58 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Last Thursday I received my "modded seat". And last night I received a thank you reply E-Mail. The seat looks the same way I sent it,minus the new staples. Original shape and vinyl cover. While compressing the seat by hand,one can slightly feel a difference. Sitting and riding definitely a big difference. Two solid hours today riding "combined city an highway",..and so far real good! I've a "boney backside" typical white boy, and can say definitely a big improvement! Link to comment
