If the stock seat doesn't cut it for you (pretty much everyone), you should check out the Yamaha Comfort Seat!

I have this exact color mt09 2018. Was my first bike, and I will definitely be getting this comfort seat

[@FocusedGarage]

It made a huge difference! It definitely had to break in first, though.

[@nopeISdope96]

Thanks for the video. I had been looking at this seat before I watched this. I really don’t like the slope on the factory seat. You also cleared up my concern with it fitting on the 2014 model

[@FocusedGarage]

Happy to help! Its a great seat as long as you know what you're getting into.

[@Jezzy54]

Thank you! Your review helped me make a decision! Good info & comparison

[@FocusedGarage]

Happy to help!

@@FocusedGarage The Corbin seat for the MT09 SP is quoted as well over £700 in the UK which is more than twice the price of the same seat delivered to New York from California

[@FocusedGarage]

Ouch

[@Hondaflip]

Great review. Just got mine after months of research and price search. Partzilla had it for under 200 shipped so thanks for your recommendation. Can’t wait to try it

[@FocusedGarage]

Good choice!

[@crsmedina]

Thanks, just came across this model bike from watching Bad Boys for Life movie. Lol great information and will consider purchasing a naked bike like this in the future. Ride safe.

[@FocusedGarage]

Haha that's awesome! Thanks for checking it out.

[@IBtraveling]

I just ordered this seat from partzilla because of your video and my butt says thank you.

[@FocusedGarage]

Great upgrade!

[@jamesb6000]

Lol

[@mr.coffee540]

Any update?

[@FocusedGarage]

Bike has since been sold. Never got tired of that seat.

[@Shortbikerblondie]

Cool , good info 👍

[@FocusedGarage]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jaydenroach8046]

Awesome video! What number plate holder is that? i hate the look of the bulky stock holder put love the position over the wheel like that.

[@FocusedGarage]

It was actually custom made by another FZ/MT rider. He's on KZbin under MotoSouth.

[@robbyrus]

Great video, very informative!

[@FocusedGarage]

Thank you!

[@MrBlurry2011]

Great video, but you forgot to mention one thing or maybe I missed it. How does this comfort seat change your ability to move around the bike when cornering? Do you find it easier or more restricted? The stock seat seems fine to me on the track, but on longer trips with twisty mountains, I'm looking for comfort without restrictions in shifting my butt around. Thanks.

[@FocusedGarage]

This is actually slightly more grippy than the stock seat. So if someone likes to move around in the saddle alot, this might not be the choice for you.

[@ar2043]

The comfort seat is a MUST on the Yamaha MT09!!!!!!

[@FocusedGarage]

The seat made a great addition.

[@GybkaBob1010]

Anybody know does it fit to mt-09 2022? Thanx in advance

[@Ghettochappy]

Thanx helped me alot!

[@FocusedGarage]

Happy to help!

[@Ghettochappy]

@@FocusedGarage ordered one! 😊👌

[@FocusedGarage]

Great choice. Especially for the cost.

[@jhernandez77794]

Its almost twice as heavy as stock seat. Im "5,9" and I bought the comfort seat for $220 it does sit an inch higher and take time to break in..overall its a good buy if you're a taller rider doing a lot of touring with a passenger. I have no complaints. Otherwise if your shorter than "5 9" and just commuting id stick to your stock seat.

[@FocusedGarage]

I'd agree; if you are a shorter rider this seat may add too much height.

[@billybatts294]

my backside was killing me after a 50 mile ride out like wtf i did have the comfy seat spare but when i put it on it was like wtf i can barely touch the floor anyway comfy seat back on and im getting used to it youre video has explained it in a nutshell .

[@FocusedGarage]

This adds probably around .75" of height I'd guess.

[@masgamer2]

I bought this for mine a couple weeks ago and im still getting some discomfort in my butt, I know you said that it takes some breaking in, ive had it about 500 miles, do you have any discomfort at all?

[@FocusedGarage]

After about 500/1000 miles it was significantly comfier. I've got no issues with it after that break in.

[@anthonypoltes7413]

I ride towards the back of the oem seat and I feel like I'm sitting on a hill, do you still get that sensation when sitting all the way back of your section?

[@FocusedGarage]

The comfort seat sits you even higher, so yes.

[@timfunny6049]

Good morning I have a question after a day of driving I notice that the inner side of my thighs are starting to hurt because I have to clamp more with my legs to get closer to my tank will this get better?

[@FocusedGarage]

The seat does break in after the first 500 miles.

[@bikeru.k1981]

i have a yamaha comfort seat on my MT 09, good improvement, 166 pounds tho, but the shad seats etc were 250-300 pounds! dident think they was worth it.

[@FocusedGarage]

The comfort seat is a huge improvement over the stock seat! Almost makes you question how much "better" the aftermarket ones can really be.

[@boostedKTM]

Does anybody have a link to buy this OEM Comfort seat

[@FocusedGarage]

Check the Partzilla site.

[@RedBeats27]

Hey man, does this seat fit on a 2020 mt09 SP model?

[@FocusedGarage]

Hello, yes this should fit on that bike!

[@lucyferina]

So sad, I have both the FZ-09 and the FZ-10 both bought on 2017 and because of work (military) I have only put 1000 miles on each... and I can't ride now because of course I'm deployed again... oh well 2 more years and I will be retiring...Let some new guy continue serving the country.

[@FocusedGarage]

Thank you for your service!

[@lucyferina]

6'5" so, no problems flat footing any bike even the tallest adventure bikes. It's glorious. Disadvantages I have to start on a big bike because the smaller bikes are, well Small.

[@FocusedGarage]

Has to be quite a sight when on smaller bikes.

[@briankay3414]

Will this comfort seat fit a 2017 FJ09?

[@FocusedGarage]

I believe this seat only works on the FZ and MT 09, not the FJ/Tracer.

[@derekbrown1935]

So , I'm 6'4 would this make it more comfortable? As I'm a taller rider

[@derekbrown1935]

What does it raise the weight height too ?

[@FocusedGarage]

It will make it more comfortable for taller riders by increasing the riders height on the bike.

[@craig4926]

just ordered for my 14 fz09. cant wait to get it. dont like the stock seat putting the jewels into the tank lol

[@FocusedGarage]

This helps a ton with that angle. lol

[@coleburghard1630]

If you don't mind me asking how much are the comfort seat?

[@craig4926]

I paid 188$ i believe on revzilla.com

[@PatrickHawkins]

@@craig4926 I just got a 14 fz09. Does it fit well?

[@craig4926]

Yes fit perfectly, a little less sleek looking because of the thickness but i loved it, put me in a better riding position

[@imnotimpressedbyourperform2460]

Do these fit the 2015 models?

[@FocusedGarage]

Yes it will.

[@fredsknekt]

Have you campared it to the shad comfort seat

[@FocusedGarage]

Nope. Only compared to the stock seat. Sorry!

[@Jasonnnnnnn007]

i had a friend with the Shad seat. its very soft and comfortable as well. but sadly shad seat is pretty low compared to Yamaha comfort seat.

[@eliaskhalil562]

It makes the seat position lower ??

[@FocusedGarage]

No. It raises the seat about a whole inch.

[@warrenseiboth3466]

if you want it the same height or lower buy a sargeant seat

[@soniawebb3249]

@@warrenseiboth3466 is it more comfort tho ?

[@marceloA1313]

I have 1 MT -09 AND THE SEAT IS A REAL SHIT .

[@FocusedGarage]

Stock seat is definitely a weak point.

[@yammydodger1988]

Apart from the stock seat, this is the worst seat available for this bike, it's hard as nails and doesn't soften up, it's also taller and much wider than other seats, save your money and have the stock seat re-shaped with memory foam.

[@FocusedGarage]

Everyone will have different feelings; I still feel this is a huge step up from stock. I haven't tried other offerings though so I can't compare.

[@philalbion867]

These seats are not available from yamaha til feb 2022. Poor show

[@FocusedGarage]

Supply chain is very messed up right now.

[@abbastabatabaie9321]

I apologize, but why do you say "We". You are 1 person, just say "I".
