Option 719 seats for R18 Classic

[blues n twos]

Hi all, I'm reaching out to the collective wisdom here

I'm looking to improve the pillion seat comfort and saw this seat on another forum members bike and it looks very nice. Trouble is there is very little info on the web about the Option 719 seats makeup.

It looks better padded especially the pillion one. Has anyone here got one? I know the classic seat is higher than the Pure but is the 719 seat higher, lower, better padding etc?

This is the one I'm looking at below.


Cheers

Jon

I too really liked the look of that seat but in reality I doubt it will be any more comfortable than the original Classic seat. I changed my seat to the day rider which has made a tremendous difference. I may have my original seat reupholstered as I do like that too but can't abide the torture that comes on following 50 odd miles.

Seems to be the same height as the classic looking at press pics side by side but is nothing more than a different cover. If you want comfort and OEM you will be looking at Day Rider/ Weekender/ Cross Country seats. First two can be used as a solo seats also.
