Touratech has produced a new version of its Comfort seat to suit the latest BMW R1300 GS which incorporates a heating element to replicate the OE experience of warm buttocks. It’s a plug-and-play replacement for the OE seat, and the heating element can even be fitted into the most low-profile version of the seat thanks to a new laminating method of construction. The seat comes in four different thicknesses to tailor the ride height, with the sculpted foam core angled to provide an ergonomically correct posture and with a pressure-relieving groove cut into it. The cover fabric is a Fresh Touch material which reflects some of the sun’s rays, reducing the surface temperature of the seat by up to 10oC. It’s also waterproof, with taped seams, and has a colour scheme that uses some M-Sport shades for an eye-catching look, or a more subtle all-black version is available for shrinking violets.
The seat comes in low (-2cm height), standard, high (+2cm ) and extra-high (+4cm) options, all supplied with a standard height pillion seat, for an SRP of £446.52.
