    R18 pure to classic conversion?

    I have found a Mustang fastback saddle in brown on clearance for $150, so I went that route instead. It's hard to find good info on it but I think it'll be great. Now I just gotta find one of those adjustable sissy bars to get a backrest. Does anyone have any recommendations or something that...

    RSD Discount

    I just had my OEM seat reupholstered in the areas I needed and then recovered as I didn’t see the sense in so much white stitching being on a seat that’s exposed to the elements… cost me $450aud. My dealership in Western Australia is discounting nothing!!!

    RSD Discount

    great discount on the brown fastback seat. I got one a week ago and installed it on my bike also. more comfy than stock for the main rider for sure. I rode for a little while and my cheeks did not go numb while with the stock seat I start to feel the pain... worth the 150 for a mustang seat...

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    I wanted to push the look of my new (to me) R18 further away from my Triumph Bobber, and when I spotted a brand new RSD Fastback seat in brown leather for only $300 I snatched it up. I installed it with and without the included leather strap, and opted to keep it on for a nice finishing touch...

    Help with seating.

    ...June which is about 600 miles one way! I am a bigger guy. 6’3 240. I have used the stock 719 seat then put a pad on That. Then tried the fastback seat but that was too low. So now I have the fast back seat with an air hog cover on it which helps a little but still doesn’t work well after a...

    Information R18 Classic. Buffeting experience and advice.

    ...this topic could be collected somewhere for future easy reference? Anyway to the discussion. I’m about 6ft (183cm) tall, sitting on the fastback seat but the standard seat was the same in this regard. I ride with a jet helmet so no chin guard. I felt buffeting at most medium to higher...

    Roland Sands fastback seat.

    I traded in my R18 for an R18 TS. I have a Roland Sands fastback seat in brown that I don't need anymore. It has about 600 miles on it and looks new. Asking $250. Prefer local pickup in the seattle area but will ship also.

    Modifying for Tall Riders: A Comfort Guide

    Appreciate you diving deep into your experience. I’m currently riding an R1250GS Adventure, but I’m on the edge of transitioning to the R18B. Comfort’s a big deal for me, and my test runs on the bike have been a bit of a roller coaster in terms of how I feel about the bike. After a 2-hour...

    Modifying for Tall Riders: A Comfort Guide

    ...the cross country seat does, but it comes close. Definitely more comfortable for my ass...at the expense of leg comfort. I kinda want the fastback seat just to have it. Just like the look for some reason....I just doubt it's comfort for some reason. If I ever find a deal on the day rider...

    Seat Recomendations

    I found neither the base seat nor the tall comfort seat very comfortable. I put on one of the fastback Roland Sands seats and it's much better for me. My passenger likes it less though, but she mostly rides her own bike...

    Installed the RSD Fastback seat by Mustang on my R18 Classic today. Looks good! Haven’t tried it out yet but installation was easy.

    Ripping apart the RSD seat

    You went from brown to blue and white. All joking aside, the profile is awesome.It should turn out real nice. Good job and yeah,never got the brown seat unless it had something matching.Like paint or brown bags.
