    Gel seat insert

    Has anyone tried putting a gel insert into their existing seat.
    My seat doesn't need to be recovered but I would like it to be a little more comfy.

    Few people have done Gel or memory foam... buy the gel, remove the cover, get an old electric knife to cut the foam with & away you go... (allegedly, I haven't done much of this myself).

    If you pull your cover off & turn the foam over you will also find there is a square cut out in the bottom where Suzuki put some different grade foam... you can replace that piece with something else really easily.
