Options For Adding Motorcycle Gel Seats to Your Bike
By Simon Harris

Riding on a motorcycle is usually not all that comfortable for long periods of time unless you have gotten a custom seat or pad to make the bike more comfortable. Depending on how much money you have available, you can either order a custom motorcycle gel seat or you can get a gel seat pad to put on top of the seat you already have.

The least expensive option to improve the comfort of your bike is to add a gel cover. AMC makes Comfort Max Gel Pads that cost between $70 and $125 depending on the size and cover material that you choose. If you choose a waterproof neoprene cover your gel seat cover will cost $20 less than if you choose a silver, tan, or black sheepskin cover. There are five sizes available: buddy (7" wide by 11" long), medium (12" by 12"), large (14" by 11"), jumbo (16" by 12"), and ortho-deluxe (18" wide by 17" long by 8" wide front).

For about $250 you can get the Suzuki Genuine Accessories Custom Gel Leather Seat, Pillow - C90T for Suzuki Boulevard motorcycles. This motorcycle gel seat equalizes the pressure of your body weight. It has a SaddleGel and foam inside and an outer cover made of leather/vinyl. Another option for riders of this type of motorcycle (as well as the (Intruder) is the Suzuki Genuine Accessories Gel Seat - Two Piece - Intruder LC. This option has gel inserts in both of the motorcycle seats so both riders will be comfortable.

The Kawasaki Fire and Steel Gel Seat (Studded) - Vulcan 900 Classic/LT works for Kawasaki Vulcan motorcycles and costs around $265. You have the option of either plain or flame stitching in this maintenance free motorcycle gel seat with a fake leather cover.

Mustang makes motorcycle gel seats for Harley Davidson touring bikes called the One-Piece Sport Touring Seat for Road King (with or without studs). The version without the studs costs about $419, and is 15.5 inches wide in the front and 11 inches wide in the rear. If you would like a back rest there is an opening in the seat where you can install one.
