    The Complete Seat by Seat Concepts is designed to replace the hard KTM seat with wider, super comfortable foam and a gripper seat cover. The Comfort XL seat retains the narrow front profile that the stock seat provides but with the added benefit of more plush foam in the rear that provides lasting comfort on longer rides. This seat comes in a black carbon fiber gripper top with orange stitching, and is also available in a tall version. In this video, Justin gives us his full review on the Comfort XL complete seat in the midst of a 5 day adventure ride on his street-legal 2020 KTM 500 XCF-W (500 EXC)

    Bought mine a week ago from your company. I have used the seat concepts xl for about 250miles so far and I do agree it’s a total game changer for long days of riding. And thanks for getting it to me here in Arizona quickly, keep up the good work and great customer service.

    Hey Justin, love the videos that you, Chase, and the RM boys constantly put out - thank you for the good work on all of them. I just purchased a 2020 KTM 500 EXC and have about 20 hours on it. You are right in that the seats are not comfortable when sitting on, so that's not good for a dual sport. I've heard from many people that the Seat Concepts Comfort XL seat is the way to go, so I'm giving in and buying one today from RM. Funny thing: you took a 500 XCF and effectively turned it into a EXC. I'm taking my 500 EXC and I'm turning it into a XCF (I'm in CA, so the only way to have a street-legal bike is for it to start that way).

      Thanks Dan! yeah, I should have just got the EXC. Oh well - both are fantastic bikes. Yeah, get the seat! It is a must if you spend much time on the seat. They did a great job shaping this seat - I was very happy with it. - Justin

    Great review.
    I have had a few Seat Concepts seats on my Beta's, I have a STD Comfort seat for my 17 Xtrainer which was a big improvement over the stock seat and just ordered an XL Comfort for my Beta 390 RR race edition that is set up for Dual sport. Seat Concepts has awesome product IMO. Can't wait to receive it, and also can't wait to be able to ride after our worlds current situation.
    Stay Healthy My Friend

    I have a 2019 500 EXC-F converted to supermoto. Does the wide part of the XL seat hang way over the edges of the bike? I want to buy the most comfortable seat being the XL but don’t want a ton of material hanging over on each side.

    I am a shorter rider and was wondering is the added width a factor when your standing up on the bike ? Or only when you sit back ?

  • @mikef3300
    @mikef3300 2 года назад

    Just got back from 3 1/2 hours on my Ktm 690 enduro r and my ass is on 🔥 lol. I have heard about the seat concepts seat but didn’t really know what the difference between the stock seat and the seat concepts was really. Everyone says that they are more comfortable but never explains what it is that makes it so? Is it the foam density or is it thicker? In most reviews they just talk about the cover difference. I like that you have the wider xl seat that you reviewed and the way you explained how it is the same width up front so standing is not affected. I also believe that the seat being wider in the rear on the xl would offer more support when sitting back on the seat like you talked about. This is the best review that I’ve watched so far on the seat concepts seat and the first I’ve found on the xl model. Thanks for taking the time to make it 👍

    I have a 350 exc-f And looking for any luggage options so I can take a lunch to work ect. Currently there is no hard luggage options that I know of but I see your luggage system seems pretty decent as it worked out well and if so would it be easy and convenient to do something like I mentioned to and from work for lunches etc.?

    I did a 2100 mile ride on my 500exc with the stock seat. Miserable! I bought a SC Tall comfort kit and had it shaped to my spec using the stock pan. Much better, but still not optimal. Off road it’s awesome!

      Wider still at the back of the seat. On trips over 100 miles, I add a sheepskin pad.

    2022 KTM 500 EXC-F. What's the height difference between the XL and the XL Large? I'd like as much cush as possible and still be able to touch my feet. I'm 5'10." I want to buy one right now...Yes, through RMATV!! 😁

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  3 года назад +1

      The Comfort XL model is the same height as stock but 9 1/2" wide at the widest point, while the Comfort XL Tall seat is 8 3/8" wide and 7/8" or 22mm taller than the stock seat. If you enter your bike model on the product page, as you select the different seat options available, the product description will change to let you know the measurements.

      The Xl is wider than the regular which is supposed to help give more comfort with a wider platform to sit on. If you're not worried about seat width and want the most comfort, then you want the Xl model.
