Before & After With New Seat

[@mrobamatron4852]

I recently bought a fairly ratty 98 VStar 650. And honest to god your videos have basically tought me how to essentially restore this bike. I greatly appreciate the assistance and keep up the great work!

[@bernbo]

Thank you for the kind comment bro and thanks for watching the vids, very happy to hear that they have helped you out. Love to hear feedback like this. Congrats on the 650 bro, awesome bikes! Cheers!

Seems like the other seat was more comfortable. Anyway the sound of those pipes 😅❤

[@bernbo]

Thanks, I do like the pipes they have a real bark to them when you want it. I found that on the factory seat I was swimming in it, this seat is more like you are sitting in the bike if that makes sense, lol.

​@@bernboI find the stock seat pushes me forward and bends my back kinda. I want a step up saddle man seat on brown leather if I can find something

[@seemeontv]

Good before and after. Definitely like the after.

[@jonfarris2716]

I have that same seat on my 99 1100 vstar and is very comfortable. The seat looks great and really gets you down in the bike. No difference in the way the bike handles. Best custom seat for the price.

[@bernbo]

I agree Jon, been riding with this seat for a while now and I have absolutely no regrets. I feel way more connected to the bike with this seat than the stock one for sure. Cheers!

Lookin good. Happy Holidays!

[@chauffeurmarco]

I would like that you tell us after a long ride next summer.

[@bernbo]

I will do a review on it for sure. So far though no regrets.

[@mikeydvd1]

Awesome seat. Looking good.

[@3zonker88]

It looks awesome! But I have TWO issues! Comfort on a long ride and are you "too low" to the ground! (Too low on a bike that wasn't built that way throws off balance in corners and stops, etc.)

[@bernbo]

Thanks man. So far I have no issues, for me it has been all good. More comfort better handling and looks good too. My buddy Paul Black has the same seat on the same bike for years now and he is of the same feeling which made it even easier for me to make the call on buying it. No regrets.

[@skinnyrabbitt3146]

[@buddyharshaw9140]

[@bernbo]

[@buddyharshaw9140]

Cool thank you for the reply

[@marcoj8746]

Looking fine bro sweet nottm cruiser

[@zzz8596]

Is that for the 1100 or 650 , thanks

[@bernbo]

Its for the 1100.

[@rocknroll5544]

hi! why did not you like the original seat? is it not convenient?

[@johnh7464]

MOTO partiZan stock seats on Yamaha motorcycles and just about every other manufacturer are terrible. Anything over an hour and your butt is sore/numb.

[@bernbo]

The old seat was ok, this one for me is better. I sit lower and the bike handles much better with the weight lower in the frame so to speak. the feeling of control is effortless. Also it is very comfortable.

[@TufdogsPlace]

Looks swell ! YAYAH !

[@RetiredTony]

right on man! now to pick up some old broads! haha..."Take it ease" man

[@LuckyMammoth]

:) shot and....full

[@dominicferro9475]

Is this the potato chip seat?

[@bernbo]

Yes, it is. My buddy bought one for his 1100, i tried it out and loved it. So I bought one.

[@dominicferro9475]

Bernbo I’m probably going to get one for my roadstar. They look great. How is it comfort wise?!

[@bernbo]

@@dominicferro9475 This is just my personal opinion, I love this seat. I find that this seat has you sitting into the bike rather than on top of it, if that makes sense. The bike Is much easier to handle because of it too. The lower seat height makes an incredible difference for sure. No regrets.

[@dominicferro9475]

Bernbo and it’s comfortable?

[@bernbo]

@@dominicferro9475 I find it very comfortable, it's a lot more firm compared to the factory seat. I could ride for about an 1hr to 1 1/2 hrs on the factory seat before my butt got a bit sore. I can ride 2 to 3 hrs now before I get that.
