ecomfort seat and heated grips for 2014 cbr1000rr

Folks

need advice, after a short journey my enjoyment of my long awaited Blade is in jeopardy, why? My poor bottom can take the so uncomfortable seat no longer. Is the £218 worth the spend for an ecomfort seat? Are there any alternatives to this at a cheaper cost?

I had occasion to be out a bit later than normal recently; on the return journey from Inverary to Paisley my poor fingers began to suffer from the cold. (aw shame ) Has anyone installed the latest heated grips from Honda that has the heated grips switches built into the left hand switch gear?

thanks, Dave

 

hi mate have honda grips with switch in on my sp they work very well and look good to

 

try a guy called tophills on ebay (jimmy) he gelled mine and recovered it , great job he also did passenger seat as well.

 

First modification is the e-cushion gel seat!! Looks a lot better than the standard seat too. They are that good that if I sold my blade I would hang onto it just in case I got another one. As a matter of fact thay are flipping awesome.

 

Magma, wasn't you I met up at the Green Welly a few weeks ago was it ?
Black 2012 blade and my mate had the blue R1.

 

Got a 'Comfort' seat for an 08-14 Blade for sale OP.

Tiz yours for £110 inc postage to mainland UK.

sinewave many thanks for the kind offer, in between my post and reading your reply I ordered a seat from the local dealer, tried it yesterday and what a difference it made. Oh and fitted a Honda genuine 'High Screen' yesterday too, I think its similar to a double bubble? just need some rearsets. Does anyone have any recommendations for fully adjustable rearsets that have hinged footrests for the 2014 CBR1000RR C-ABS?

 

R4ster, was I with my chum who was on a red Fazer 1000? I do chat somewhat when meeting like minded folks, there was a very nice gixer 1000 in the car park that day and I recall chatting with some nice chaps; we had arrived just as a bubble car outing was leaving? memory is not quite it was ...

 

Have you got a 600F as well ?
Guy I was chatting to from paisley had a 2012 blade and a 600F.
I did point him in the direction of this forum, as he was asking about suspension settings.

As for rearsets, I have just sold a set on eBay, brand new, for £100.

 

Ratser, I know it's been a while since you posted but apologies I've not been on the forum for a while. Sorry it wasn't me you spoke too; as well as the Blade I had a Thundercat 600( did have but wife gave it to my son as clearly I can only ride one bike at a time!). Still looking for a set of rearsets, seems R&G do a set but limited adjustment puts me off these.
