I had really nice results buying from a US upholstery shop that specializes in bike seats and tank pads. You make your choice of seat color, stitching pattern and color. When it’s done he sends the completed product for you to install onto your existing seat. Only about twenty minutes of installation and you have a beautiful custom seat. Reasonable too.
Ah thats good to hear Mr Cotti! it certainly looks well made to me. a little firmer than the existing seat perhaps but then all seats require a little breaking in! Thanks for your comment sir!
thank you sir! yes i am actually planning on a review of the T100 for prospective customisers/used buyers in the not too distant future! i shall include it there!
Hi Stuart a silly question but I have a 06 bonneville and was wondering if I could update the speedo to a similar one to the one you have on your t120 mine has no digital yours dose on the bottom left thanks again
Hi Stuart, I love your TH-cam Channel, I just discovered it about a month ago. I don't know if you respond to comments on videos from 2 years ago but here's hoping. I just purchased a Bonneville T 120 partly on your reviews. I'm in the US in Madison WI and the riding weather is perfect now. But one thing I've noticed on my Triumph is how inadequate the stock seat is, it really gets hard after 45 minutes. So that's why I was interested in this video. But you don't really mention seat comfort or if the seat provides any more height to the riding position. These are the two things I'm looking for in a seat, I did notice that you said that you had the Triumph custom seat on your T120 and I understand that seat does have more padding or form and does have a higher riding position. I looked at both Motones and British Customs web site and I can see that almost all of there seats are sold out. That kind of floored me that business would be so good during a pandemic. Well here's hoping I hear from you, If not thank you anyways for some of the best motorcycle videos on TH-cam, And I with a lot of them. Dave McKenney
Does the seat also fit the 2016 T120? Nevermind it says only up to 2015 on the website. 😔 I have a similar style seat on my Royal Enfield interceptor but it is actually real leather same color and very comfortable.
yeah i dont know if they sell many! seats have always been silly money, but luckily thats changing! as for the fender thing, yeah im a bit embarrassed that ive started doing it too! thanks for watching!

Looks good in the dual colour, I had a black diamond stitch one from Motone and was extremely comfortable.

That's sharp! I am enjoying watching your progress.
Thanks Wayne!
Thanks Stuart! Don't know how l missed that.
A nice looking seat, and the Rottweiler color is a good one. Looking forward to a long range comfort review.
Nice pic on the Motone page.
thank you sir! yes i am actually planning on a review of the T100 for prospective customisers/used buyers in the not too distant future! i shall include it there!
I was wondering if its possible to fit the cafe racer fairing from triumph thruxton on the bonneville t100??
I would imagine it would be sir, though it might take a little ingenuity!
Stuart, having a hard time finding this particular seat! I guess u got the only one Motone had. Lol!
LOL try clicking on the link in the video description above Terry!
Stuart is this seat the same height as the stock seat? I have a 2014 t100 and love looks of this seat but wouldn't want it to be any higher.
As far as i cant tell Terry they are both the same height!
Gorgeous seat! Do you think that wear will happen to the lovely stitching for using jeans?
I dont think that would be a problem Nuno!

Im not sure the ECU would be equipped to operate it sir!

Love it 👍🙏❤️

no but they do have versions available.
I sent them a message and they got back to me they plan on making one it's in the works. 😊 So I will be patient and wait for it to come out. 😊
Looks really good, more so with the rack gone. Are you willing to give away the new colour yet?
still in talks with Motone at the moment but it looks like British Racing green will be one of the colours!
Pity they don’t do one for the T120
T100 seat is seriously uncomfortable as I’ve found out after buying mine. After 30 minutes ride I have a serious arse ache
Hi Stuart. paying hundreds of Euros. Christ, that's a lot to pay. Why are people saying " fender " instead of "mudguard " these days?
yeah i dont know if they sell many! seats have always been silly money, but luckily thats changing! as for the fender thing, yeah im a bit embarrassed that ive started doing it too! thanks for watching!
lol no offence taken!
