I got mine today.  Exactly the same.

[REDHORSECA]

The Tusk ATV/Motorcycle Seat Heater arrived. It will work out for me, it's small enough to fit over the seat foam. I can't quite put it as far back as I would like, because of how the seat cover is pulled through/down the foam in the rear cut out. I'm OK with it.

 

I've decided the wire will go through the front, unlike how it's pictured. So, my arse doesn't sit on the wiring. OR I may forego tucking the seat cover through the cut out and just run the heat element all the way back.

Nice! Which kit did you order? I've got a low on order but no tracking number yet. Let us know how it goes...I was planning on getting the Harbor Freight special too, hahaha. And now that I've got a T7 we'll have to get together and ride in Pisgah!

Oh dang, I didn't know they would sell me just the cover for the rear...I'm gonna be rockin' mismatched I suppose . I wonder if they'll get me a rear cover with the 30% discount still on it.

 

And I'm guessing you meant "paved and unpaved"....or maybe "unshaved"?  But I don't think we needed to know that.

Opps. Damn autocorrect! Edited!

SC complete seats will come out early next year.

I got mine yesterday.  It only took about 45 minutes to remove the old covers and install the new one.

How it feels compared to the stock one? Would you purchase it again?

[Teambeer]

Definitely.  It provides much better support and spreads out the pressure.

@Seat Concepts

 

EDITED: conveniently, happened to get a 25% HF coupon. So went and picked up the 20 gauge stapler. Need to recover the kitchen chairs anyways.

 

Got my tracking number for seat kit. One question. I've got a 2-n-1 brad nailer/18 gauge staples gun. Will the 18 gauge staples be to big of a wire?

Just got off the phone with Seat Concept and ask when they would have seats with pans , just front or one piece.

and the guys response was there was nothing in the works .. 

not consistent with what I read here ..

I was hoping to keep my oem seat for local aggressive rides .. 

sergeant is working on a saddle, hopefully that will be out sooner rather than later ...

Agree - The very first post says this:

Next week we will start working on the 1 piece pan for our complete seats. We will be changing the shape of the OEM 1 piece pan as it has too many intrusions to the seating are from the bottom. This limits the amount of foam that can be removed for low seats and still comfortable. We will be working on the following different shapes (not set in stone) in roughly the following order (all a 1 piece design):

Stock height comfort 

Low comfort

Tall comfort 

Low rally

standard rally

2 up standard comfort

Tall rally

Sport touring

 

These could change in production order but would be a close representation.

These would be all be available as a complete seat only as the base shape change will require a matching foam shape to fit. Our reshaped pan will help produce a better, more comfortable starting point than the OEM pan.

Waiting on the 1-piece was the reason I chose to forego the group buy...

[Desert Mariner]

Seat Concepts will weigh in I'm sure. My understanding is that there will be a one piece pan/complete seat in several styles as listed above. What's not in the works is a complete seat/pan for the two piece set up.

 

I much prefer one piece, rally-style seats for aggressive riding. I wish the bike had been supplied with a one piece seat as the stock default. However, I am excited to try out the seat concepts front seat tall cover I just got with the B&B solo rack that will be arriving soon. I'll post pictures when I get it all installed. I'm also considering the Black Dog Helo Pad as an even more versatile option.

I just had a talk with my sales staff and cleared this up. Yes, we are going to be making a complete seat option and it will be for the 1 piece design only. Here is a pic of the sample production base.

That’s what I am waiting for!

[Yamadube]

Can't wait. Any ETA @Seat Concepts? 

[Xtina]

Hope mine ships soon. So excited

Got my seat kit today. The included instructions mention something about a waterproof cover.... is that the plastic bag it came in or is that not needed?

There should be a folded plastic sheet in the package. Easy to miss.
