    Can anybody recommend somewhere that can fit a gel or memory foam insert to a Kawasaki seat, using the original seat cover if possible?
    I am probably going to try it myself, but I'd like to get a quote just out of interest, before I go ahead. If there's not a huge price difference I may as well pay someone to do it instead. :)

    I’m sure the magazine that you got from Wesson’s had ad in there but can’t remember who it was. Need to do for tracer too

    You could try Motea-Uk on e-bay, listing 979401 / eb-974238-026. But if anything, you need to be quick...they only send to EU.

    Thanks, all. I've had a couple of quotes so now I'll see how much the DIY option will be. :)

    No need. I already have a gel seat on it. :)

    Practice on the in-comfort seat on the tracer.

    Done some research of my own Brighton/Sussex Motorcyles are the ones that I was thinking of. An extensive website detailing what and how etc. That’s in the Preston park area. Another is at clay hill on the a26 between Lewes andUckfield, SW Trimming, unsure on there work but I’ll get quotes from both as near one another.

    Mine works out at around £70 at Sussex M/C's. There seems to be several DIY gel pads available that I could use so I'm doing a bit more research before I make my mind up. As far as I can tell you get what you pay for with these gel pads, unless anyone on here knows more about it? There's always something new to learn about :confused:
