Sargent seat
I'm thinking about getting a Sargent seat for my VTR. Does anyone know if the rear seat cowl will fit on the Sargent? If not, are there any other seats(besides stock) that it will fit on? Any input will be appreciated.

My Hawk had the Sargeant seat when I bought it but the guy I bought it from said it was one of the best upgrades he made. Just read a post where a guy rode from Canada down to Kansas and he had a Sargeant.

I have a sargent and a Corbin. I have the seat cowl on the Corbin and use it when I don't have to lug the girlfrind around. The corbin is smooth but eh basket weave pattern on the sargent works best in Florida. Seems to help the air circulation and keeps the monkey but at bay.

I ordered mine direct from Sargent, because I wanted a non stock option of "medium gray" piping. It matches my '05 Titanium and I got it from a phone order in 7 days.
It is Soooooo comfortable!

My bike came with the stock saddle and a Corbin. Corbin was much more comfortable than stock. About 6 months ago I was able to trade with a forum user for a Sargeant. After riding the Sargeant for 6 months I would say the Sargeant is more comfortable than the Corbin. A little more narrow at the front and just seems to hold your butt better. The Sargeant has the older fabric which they have discontinued. I am thinking about getting it redone in the new stuff for $70.

I've had a Sargent on my VTR for about 6 years. It's a huge improvement over the stock seat. The seat cowl fits but the tabs at the front of it have to be trimmed to fit the Sargent. Directions are included IIRC. The rear tab on the seat cowl fractured after about 4 years of use. I was able to repair it with Plastex.
