So one of the things I have learned over the years is that if you are going to put in long days in the saddle you better have a comfy saddle. So after watching my buddy on one of our trips move about a lot and tell me how the seat was not so comfortable I decided the first thing I should do is invest in a good comfy seat. My wife had within the past year had Renazco build her a seat for her BMW X-country which she seems to like a lot so I figured I would give them a try. I kept it simple with black material and orange stitching and also had them lower it by 1 inch as SXC's are known for being tall bikes and I am not particularly tall at 5' 10". I also had them put gripper material on the sides so I would have something to hang onto when things get rough. It took quite some time to get it done as it seems that Renazco always has a several month backlog, but I finally got it back and it looks pretty damn good and seems to be comfortable. Since I haven't ridden the bike much I will have to provide more feedback later as I get it broken in.
