Hi all,

Sorry if this has been hashed to death before, I wasn't paying any
attention when I didn't need a seat and now I can't seam to dig up any good
info.

I have a two up seat that so far I like and has been comfortable, though I
have not been on any long trips as of yet. Unfortunately it has a tear on
the side and is quickly coming apart. The foam is quickly shredding and
falling out also. I guess I will just take it to a local upholstery place
and have it recovered. Does anyone have any other ideas? I'm willing to
send it to a specialist or to send it to a Guzzi friend. I believe in
supporting business that way, not just lowest bidder.

Also, if I am sans seat for a little while, I wouldn't mind picking up a
solo seat. Any recommendations or ones to avoid? After market is fine for
me, I'm sure my current one isn't stock. My butt is not that picky, but it
likes to be comfy.

BTW, I hope to make this rally next week. I'll only be there on Thursday,
having to head back on Friday. Hopefully I can meet some of you. Since I
have only been riding for less than a month, I will be driving. I am
tempted to trailer the bike though.

Thanks,

-AJ
