F650GS G650GS Adventure Track Low Seat

F650GS G650GS Adventure Track Low Seat

 

The  Adventure TRACK seat is a hybrid design that combines Saddlemen’s® exclusive  elements of a GEL comfort layer and progressive density foam with our patented  GEL-Channel saddle design that delivers unparalleled comfort and control.  Designed using advanced engineering, this family of seats is for the active and  discriminating adventure rider. Each seat contains features that complement the  motorcycle, in several cases overcoming the original seats’ design challenges:
Cover:
The waterproof WP-suede cover over the rider’s cockpit provides the proper amount of grip - an attribute that is essential when the road ahead turns rough. The passenger section (and some of the seats for the mid-sized dual sports) is covered with a tough grippy material that also keeps things in place and is supple to the touch. All of Saddlemen’s® marine-grade covers are unfazed by the elements, detergents or fuel. Water simply wipes away from the center section with a brush of your hand and the cover dries quickly.
Foam & GEL:
Saddlemen’s® GEL technology resides in each seat and each inch of it exceeds the comfort of  three inches of conventional foam. Our progressive density, closed cell foam never absorbs water and has been carefully sculpted and tested for maximum riding performance.
Foundation (Pan, Brackets & More):
Each Adventure TRACK seat is designed to fit better that a stock seat because it is constructed on strong, gel-coated fiberglass pan with plated steel brackets for a superb fit. Our motto of “fitting better than stock” is apparent each time you mount the seat. If you’re going on an adventure, your seat can’t let you down.
Easy to take extra cargo:
Because each riding mission needs flexibility, we’ve designed in integrated bag or cargo mounting points on the pillion seat that link up with our Adventure PACK luggage and other tail bags. We’ve added a gripper top cover to the pillion section of  the seat to aid in keeping your pack or passenger in place during your adventure.

These  Adventure TRACK features make sure that these seats are a vital accessory for the discriminating to use when circumnavigating the globe.

General Information

Hybrid seat design  combines SaddleGel interior, progressive density foam and a Gel Channel saddle  to provide Adventure and Dual Sport riders with unparalleled comfort and  control.

Saddlemen’s® Gel Channel  (GC) technology (patent pending) seats incorporate a split piece of SaddleGel  and a channel in the base foam to relieve seating pressure on the perineal  area, increase blood flow, thus keeping the rider in the saddle longer.

Gel Channel seats offer  high quality, durable construction and styling that’s as unique as it is  functional.

The vinyl and rugged  micro-fiber suede cover holds up to hard use while providing a superb blend of  comfort and control (certain models feature a rugged gripper style cover).

Some seat applications,  such as mid-sized Dual Sport motorcycles, have a standard foam design (no GC)  with a gripper and vinyl cover better suited to rigorous riding.

Integrated bag/cargo mounting points on the pillion portion of the Adventure-class seat sets make it easy to attach Saddlemen’s® Adventure PACK luggage or other cargo.

Most mid-sized Dual Sport applications also include a luggage/cargo mounting strap set that  installs or removes in seconds from the seat.

A solo rider-seat, rather than a full two-piece set, is available in some applications.

Most seats are also available in low-profile designs.

Specific Information

The height of the front portion of the seat mimics the original seat, but with a slightly longer cockpit and wider, contoured saddle for comfort.

A specially shaped seat nose has extra padding for comfort, yet is shaped to help the rider’s feet touch the ground better at stops.

The seat angle is revised to prevent the rider from being forced into the fuel tank.

Driver seat micro-fiber cover provides great balance between grip n’ slip for confinement control on or off-road.

Water wipes away from the seat and center GEL channel: dries in minutes.

Large GEL pads in the seat add extra comfort and act as a vibration damper during rough riding.

The rear section of the seat features a thicker, progressive density foam base and GEL for passenger comfort.

The pillion area is also stepped up higher than the original seat to provide a lumbar stop for the rider and to help improve the passenger’s view over the rider’s shoulder.

Pillion section gripper cover not only helps secure luggage or cargo, but adds passenger confidence by restricting unwanted movement or slipping.

Rugged, steel mounting hardware is pre-attached to seat; simply install the new saddle like the original seat

The gel-coated, marine grade fiberglass pan withstands the rigors of hard use.

Larger rubber pan bumpers guarantee vibration damping and long seat life.

The ideal cover for a motorcycle must exhibit many features, and Saddlemen utilizes the best material, Saddlehyde™, which provides the optimum combination of good looks, comfort and durability. First, Saddlehyde™, has a luxurious look and feel due to its leather grain and soft touch feel. Second, Saddlehyde™ has a built in compliance, or stretch, that enhances the gel and foam characteristics for increased comfort. Many other materials, including many leathers, are more board like and prevent the foam or gel from doing their job of softening your ride. Third, motorcycle seats are exposed to some of the worst conditions imaginable; bright sun, heat, rain and constant flexing, conditions that ruin the looks and durability of ordinary materials. Saddlehyde™ excels in these conditions and constant application of conditioners is not required.


Our unique Co-mold process is the largest comfort advancement in motorcycle seating since the creation of the suspension.

The Cushion Layer

The top sculpted layer is the sensory layer. It cushions and provides that nice soft touch.

The Absorption Layer

The middle layer isolates vibration, absorbs and dampens shock, disperses the pressure and promotes blood flow which alleviates hot spots created by foam only seating solutions.

The Support Layer

The bottom layer “the shell” is the stability layer. The polyurethane substructure completes the seating foundation to provide a truly unique riding experience.


Scientifically proven, this amazing product will increase the amount of time you spend on your motorcycle. A seat made with SaddleGel is scientifically engineered to dampen, divert and deflect the energy from road shock which air bladders and 70 year old foam only seat technology cannot protect you from.

Our SaddleGel has the ability to conform to all body shapes, sizes, and contours to reduce pressure points and promote blood flow which minimizes “hot spots “associated the pain and discomfort.

Otherwise, pressure points or “hot spots” can hinder blood flow, causing pain and discomfort. Normal circulation is never lost on a seat with SaddleGel and it keeps you comfortable on a long ride.


Whether it's a football helmet, hospital bed, knee pad or body armor, the foam it contains plays a critical role in making that product both comfortable and safe. But can that foam be transformed into something significantly better, safer and more comfortable?

Foam only seating dates back to the 1940’s. Still after 70 years many motorcycle seating manufactures solely rely on this low cost solution ignoring the advancements in technology.

Years of study, combined with practical experience, has led to the formulation of Saddlemen’s Progressive Density Foam. The chemical make-up and raw material volume is carefully tuned to create a foam pour that is balanced between support and compliance. Varied cell sizes and types are encapsulated in the foam by an element-resistant skin that seals the foam from water and enhances the seat’s durability as well as comfort.

To complete the process then tunes the density and shape which are also necessary to provide the superior foundation for Saddlemen’s unique co-molding process that optimizes reduction is vibrations and shock directly related to rider fatigue.


Unlike most foam that has open holes at the surface, Saddlemen’s Profoam actually has an abrasion resistant skin that resists water intrusion. This barrier is engineered to form during the molding process and protects the micro cellular foam core from breaking down, which is common with many OEM and aftermarket seats.


A Saddlemen split cushion seat is divided into separate flat seat support and backrest platforms. Saddlemen separates and divides the seat into two functions; one a vertical surface for back support and the other a horizontal platform to softly support the butt. The flat portion permits the rider to sink into and comfortably float upon the SaddleGel filled seat while the lumbar rest provides support unaffected by the compression caused as the rider settles into position. On conventional seats, any rider depression of the flat platform pulls the lumbar portion of the seat forward and cramps the rider’s position, often resulting in a condition fondly known as a “wedgie.” The Saddlemen split cushion prevents this and provides comfort – mile after mile.


 

Saddlemen® seats use rigid molded ABS or hand laid fiberglass that provide the strength needed for a quality saddle. Professionally engineered by enthusiasts who understand and participate in the passion of motorcycling, each pan is specifically molded to fit to the frame and bodywork of each model motorcycle. Our blend of artistry and engineering provides the best foundation for unique saddles with style, comfort and craftsmanship. Click image for baseplate configuration for this model.
