Best $550.00 I have spent in a long while

Geez what a tough crowd, just to state the oblivious the circles are just a pattern that Mick uses on most of his seats he does, I think he would change it if it was something you did not want, and yes Jim I do have two balls and Ann definitely has none!!!!
On a serious note Chris yes it is the grippy surface that allow movement from side to side but is resistive to sliding back and forth
Ken his detail as follows
MJM Custom Motorcycle Seats

60 Maud Street
Goulburn NSW

He is friendly easy to get on with and he a good guy.... he must be he is a Triumph rider himself as I found out, he has a speedy and a tiger800 and sitting in the shop a MV Augusta Brutall.
He will do seats if you send it to him with a photo of you on bike plus your details eg weight etc but the same day service is best I reckon as he can look at you sitting on it and then explain/ discuss what will be done, I spent ten minutes chatting and picking the colours and texture of the vinyl, he showed me some pictures to help with which way to go, I had not thought about the grey side panels till he showed a picture of his tiger 800, I then handed him the keys and wandered of in to Goulburn (about 3 km so a taxi would be a good option if you don't like to walk much) where there is lots of coffe shops/ takeaways etc and on Mick's suggestion went to the Movies which used up 3 hours "Bladerunner 2045" was an awesome movie
Ken coming from up your way I would suggest you stayed a night before as he will want you there 8.30 am and the seat won't be finished till 4.30 pm, but he did mention he is usually there from 6 am so if you stayed overnight and organised to drop it off earlier you might getaway earlier, there is Motels only a short walk from his shop

Thanks Hanso I will look at the modification after RDU Nyngan ,the GTR seat is OK it just pushes me up to the tank a bit ,it wasn't too bad on the run up to Townsville recently so the 550 or so Ks each way out to Nyngan is only a short run
 
currently there is about a 1 month wait to get in so call him well ahead of when you want it done, my seat was also pushing me forward but not no more, he added to the whole seat as I mentioned I would perefer it plus he added extra to the front that and the textured surface helps
 
Well done sir, I know that pain on the explorer seat, it was one of the most uncomfortable saddle I’ve ever owned. Glad to see you found a solution.

yeah it was worse than the Standard Rocket seat I used to get 1 hour before the pain on it
 
On my Rocket Roadster I went with the russell day long and it is an amazing saddle, you can literally ride all day without pain. Now I have to get the R3T a Russell as well. The best stock seat I’ve ever had was on the 2016 thunderbird LT.... too bad Triumph wouldn’t put that R&D into all their saddles.
 
+1 for Mick's work. This is the seat he did for me.

I was up at 5am this morning so I would be on time for my appointment at MJM Custom Seats in Goulburn today to have the seats of my Triumph Explorer worked over by Mick the seat magician, I could only go 1/2 hour on the Stock Seat before the pain would start, when finished the seats look amazing to say the least and Mick mentioned that the seat would be a bit firmer to start with but already it was a large improvement as soon as I sat on it I could feel it support my but a lot better, home is down at Batemans Bay so this would be a good initial test I thought as my but was ready to cut my throat on the way up in the morning, I only got about 100km into the trip home and I could feel that not only had the seat become more comfortable but was actually the best seat I have been on and I used to think the Corbin I had on my last bike was good .... this kicks it's bum big time, I got home without any pain and in fact feeling quite fresh. Thanks Mick You Are a Legend
VERY nice seat and it looks like a nice rear tire also
