Seat Experiences

[Duccrazydave]

So, I took a ride to the dealer today to try out a sport seat that was on a ‘18 RS demo bike. Swapped the seats and rode around for about an hour. Verdict? Let’s just say as soon as there’s a chance for a swap, I’m in. Perfect blend of extra height for interstate droning. Yet crowned just enough to provide “scootability “ in the twisties. One strange thing I noticed upon returning was how much better my seat fit the ‘18 model, than my ‘16. The gap between the seat/ tank junction has always bothered me a bit. I had attributed it to production variations in the seat foam. But after seeing it on the new bike, there’s definitely something else going on. There’s no adjustability to speak of in the mounting area. So I’m left scratching my head on this one. I’ve included pics of the seat on my bike. Any ideas?
