- Have you considered an aftermarket seat to improve the comfort of your motorcycle? As someone whose always made do with a stock seat, I'm slowly being convinced (through experience) that most motorcycles, and their owners would benefit greatly from a new more comfortable seat. In this video I install and test out a new Seat Concepts seat on my 2016 Husqvarna 701.

Stay Swanky My Friends!
yeah I was gonna do the seat concepts but my butt got used to the 701 seat within like a week. got a skda gripper cover for it. just got done a 14 hour trip and my butt felt fine on stock foam honestly. I'm a weirdo tho I come from mountain biking and long distance mountains biking trips so a stock dual sport seat is like a Cadillac to me haha
That is the most beautiful motorcycle seat I have ever seen! Looks awesome on the bike.
I put that battery in my 22 KLR. Love it
Definitely have me thinking more about getting one myself. Excellent review brother 👊
I have a DRZ and replaced that seat with a seat concepts also. Stock DRZ is like a 2x4 also. Much better now. Also run that battery. Sometimes it's not so great in the cold but it's OK once you get it warmed up some.
It’s lookin good so far
I put the SC on my 2017 and it’s only slightly more comfortable. I use an Air Hawk cushion when I’m on longish rides.
Nice bike!
Sadly as dual sport riders just about all our bikes need new seats and tanks immediately upon purchase...
Seat concepts on every bike for me
My stock gen 2 klr650 seat is very comfortable for me. However my drz400 stock seat was horrible! Seat concepts saved me from having to sell that bike or just keep it for offroad only use
No, you're not nuts for spending the extra $$ for a well-made, comfortable and supportive seat. Considering how much time and distance you travel while sitting - make that the last of your concerns. Think of how the old tractor seats were shaped, out of perforated metal, which held many a derriere over millions of acres and decades of time. Also consider that BMW and Mercedes seats feel firmer and more supportive over longer distances than a soft Oldsmobile seat. Glad to see you enjoying your Husky!
I have Seat Concepts seat on a v strom 1000and I really can’t say it’s much better than the stock.
I'm on my third 701 (2016-2019-2022) and if it wasn't for the Seatconcept seat, I probably would have sold the 701s and get something else, which is a pity cause the bike is soo fun and unique to ride.
I just bought the comfort seat for my Gen 3 KLR about a month ago. It arrived last week and the verdict is still out for me on if it was worth the money I paid for a whole new seat pan in all.
I've got a 2020 701. Let's ride dude I'm In the Central North MN area.
I have one of those lithium batteries in my 2000 ZRX1100. So much smaller and lighter, for sure! I think I will eventually replace all my batteries on my bikes with Lithium.
How are the engine vibrations at highway speeds compared to the KLR and T7?
Stock seat is ribbed for her pleasure, not yours. lmao. I just picked up a 2016 also, but mine came with a SC seat already on it, so no idea how bad the stock one was. What an awesome motorcycle..
Going to take that on the snowmobile trails also? lol
