Sorry with the silly questions, but I can just open up the seat and put in different inserts? Thanks all

basically. youll just need to carve out a hole for it otherwise it would look weird.

Did you unstaple under the seat, pull it off and restaple? Where did you get the gel insert? I get about 2 hours out of my ass, maybe its fatter.

I used a Needle nose plyer to remove the staples, then the cover lifts. I bought my gel from Kno Place

Gel is amazing. I can get about 5-6 hours on it before pain sets in. But thats because the seat is still a bit angled foward....i ll have to go in and correct that later. But honestly, im thinking about getting a corbin/ sargent seat since it also gives the passenger a nice ride too.

Thanks for the link to that site. Seems like alot of work though. I'm not a very good DIY guy. I guess I'll just wait for something used to come up in the for sale section or ebay. Thanks for your help.
