A couple months ago, I was negotiating a turn in good form when my seat suddenly tilted (this is the Kawa seat) Turns out that one of the Nylon or Plastic, or whatever ears broke off causing the problem. I temporarily fixed the problem with a bungee cord. Before I could call the dealer, I saw that Ryosen11 had a Corbin seat for sale. I jumped at that deal. Since the Corbin was installed the Ninjette took on a whole different personality. The rider is much more part of the bike, which makes it handle better. You would not think that a seat can make such a difference---but it does. I just finished an 11 Hour ride with just gas stops and Rest Room breaks. When I got off the bike, there was no soreness, fatigue, or anything else. Keep in mind that the majority of this forum's participants are a lot younger than I am. I could have ridden another 12 hours. Am seriously considering doing the Iron Butt Rally. Ryosen11, Thanks a million, and Kelly, as always you were spot on.
