    Kawasaki Versys seat mod (where?)

    Palexxx did mention when I first bought the bike, but a mate is asking and I can't remember where. Is there anywhere in BKK that will modify the seat. Seems there are many places but only seem to cater for small bike..Thank

    I only know of places in Chiang Mai, but I'm sure that any of the places that do the small bikes are capable of doing big bikes too. Just take the seat off and bring that in to the shop, they don't need to see the rest of the bike.

    The guy at the good place that I went to in Chiang Mai can't speak any English but through sign language he understood what I wanted and he went ahead and did a great job.

    Hotmelt glue will fix the dildo for a while, well long enough to get the feel of the dildo to see if you want a permanent attachment performed.

    Thanks, found it straight after posting this. I'm a member on there as well!

    Strange, as yesterday I saw my neighbour wheeling a Triumph Scrambler and GS1200 in is house so I got chatting. Turns out he sells Versys mod!

    Jesus, why didn't I do this sooner? Had the seat modified in BKK, cost 350bht and what a transformation!

    Rode to Khao Krajom (Ratchburi) 2.5 hours to get there, 1.5 up the mountain falling off once, back down in the rain falling off 3 times and back to BKK. 5:30am to 3:30pm ride in a reasonable amount of comfort. Should have listened to you earlier Palexxx

    So, have you changed your mind about selling the bike then?

    Not sure, the F 800 GS is still temping me and having my office next Aseana Moto doesn't help has he kits them up.

    It is a big improvement for sure, but I'd still like something a little smoother around the 100kph plus, this is very buzzy, but fun all the same. One thing I do like is the fact that it is cheap to run and repair. I took Khao Krajom knowing full well if it pissed it down I will come off. The scorpion trails are good but the slightest bit of wet on clay and mud they are useless. I've scuffed the bike coming off, I was alone which wasn't the best idea in hindsight, but it's a fun bike knowing it costs little to fix.

    I think swapping the rear cog for a 44T would reduce that buzzyness a bit.
