Great job and great video, Eric! And thanks for editing where you sped up to the repetitive parts. Unlike some people who show you unbolting the 132 bolts that hold the transmission tunnel in place or whatever lol. Again, thanks for a great job and a great video
Awesome job. I want to do this but do you think it will be ok to cut out a round piece where the tailbone will sits? My tailbone hurts when I’m riding.
Like this, but get whatever size and thickness you want.

What about putting a gel pad with the very same dimensions of the seat over the seat and, then, just cover it again with the thin foam and the leather? It is a bit "scary" to remove the seat material, because you may end up with a destroyed seat.
I doubt you'd be able to pull that off, because the seat cover won't have that much stretch. If you did manage to somehow pull it off, I imagine the seat cover would be as taut as a drum and be hard as a rock!
@SecondLifeTravels1 thanks for the reply. I ended up grabbing some one inch furniture fabric foam. Using your video as we speak to do my seat today wish me luck
@SecondLifeTravels1 finished earlier this afternoon went great very happy with how it turned out. Thanks for the help via the video. One thing that helped out a lot was using a heat gun I did the seat on my 2018 cb650f and thw Heat made thing s do much easier to stretch the fabric over the edges of the seat and keep it tight

You were technically perfect in putting gel pad since last 5 months . Very nice

I am so doing this diy tutorial because my bum cheeks are hurting so bad hahaha. Thank you so much for doing this video.
Thanks for sharing . I have copied you and the results are astounding.
Wonderful!
Great video mate!!!
Great job ! Well done
Thanks!
Awesome job. I want to do this but do you think it will be ok to cut out a round piece where the tailbone will sits? My tailbone hurts when I’m riding.
I think it'll be fine, so long as the hole isn't too deep.
Awesome guide!! Thank you very much. Have you encountered any heat related issues like some ppl mentioned?
I have not, and I live in southeast Asia.
@@SecondLifeTravels1 that's amazing to know. Have placed the order and will be using this guide soon. Thanks again!
Could you give us an update on this project? Comfort level? Anything you would do differently?
Comfort level remained great until I sold the bike.
going to give this a bash .the old bum cheeks are getting a little sore now.thanks for sharing 👍
hey man I'm going to do this, is there disadvantage to having gel on sides of seat as well?
Not sure - I've never put it down the side of a seat before.
Can this work for someone who is a short rider and they need to take foam out of the seat in order to gain a couple of inches?
Mayyyybe, if the foam is thick enough in your seat. In my Ninja, it was already very thin.
Do you have a link for that Gel Pad?

Hi, where did you get the gel pad from?
Hi Dave, I just ordered online. Whatever online sales platforms are in your country almost certainly sell it.

Where do you buy the gel pad
Many websites sell it. If you're in the USA, eBay or Amazon.
Where did you get the grey foam roll?
I just spotted a shop by the road that had foam. In your country, do they have foam and fabric stores? Probably there.

@@BlerdClert Let me know how it goes!

@@BlerdClert Glad it worked out so well!
I was concerned about rain water oozing in and making farting noise and nasty smell from the Gel pads.
No worries, that hasn't been a problem!
