Dave in Utah Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 I have already picked up and installed the Ebay seat slope mod. It seems to work ok, but doesn't do anything for the seat itself. I just received this from Amazon, and it fits the Tracer seat perfectly. I'll try to get some miles on it soon and report back on how it rides. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BXRLMXTG?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robzilla Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 Hopefully it works out for you with good results. I did the same seat slope mod which wasn't quite what I was hoping for. Ended up getting the stock seat re-done here in the Seattle area for my Tracer and was totally worth it. I've had custom seats on my previous bikes and seems like its always the best way to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chowda Posted Friday at 06:36 AM Share Posted Friday at 06:36 AM Thankfully, after the seat slope mod and a few hundred mile break-in period the factory seat is great for me. The gel cushion looks comfy but how much higher does it cause you to sit? I'm 6'1" and like my seat in the low position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave in Utah Posted Saturday at 06:31 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 06:31 PM It raises the seat height about an inch. I'm 6'3 or so and have the seat in the upper position. I'm still up in the air about the cushion; it's very grippy and doesn't let you move around on the seat, and the slope, despite the mod, is still a problem. I might try it again with the seat in the low position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldBikers Posted Tuesday at 12:36 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:36 PM I was able to find and buy the 2024 GT+ seat which is a direct fit on my 2021. It has gel pads in just the right places to work with my bony bottom and doesn't raise you much. The cost, less than $200USD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave in Utah Posted Tuesday at 07:29 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 07:29 PM Do you know if the seat would also fit on a 2019? Did they fix the foward slope issue by then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robzilla Posted Tuesday at 10:13 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:13 PM Someone is selling their '21 and up T9 comfort seat in the classifieds. Not sure if it will fit on a '19 model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdog Posted Tuesday at 10:46 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:46 PM I have a 2015. I bought a Corbin seat for mine and it can handle 350+ mile days without killing my butt. I'm 6"3" 250 lbs. It is a King/Queen seat. Highly recommend. 2015 Grey FJ09 with a few tweaks, 2007 HD Street Glide - Good Bike + Good Friends = Good Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
