Sorry for the crappy pics, but the seat looks great. Very good craftsmanship and I have chosen the suede top with leather sides. I haven't mounted the seat yet, but will hopefully try it out this weekend.

2011 Dorsoduro 1200
You will dig it. Those guys do some great work.
Bikes:
2007.5 Tuono-Black, with 1102cc's of micah's badness!
2012 Griso-Silver and black, Agostini pipe, some carbon bits.
2006 Vespa GT200-bitubo suspension all around, Malossi big-bore, head and cam, Akrapovic pipe, all put together by Micah.
gone 2002 Caponord-Oyster gray (as faithful as a hound dog)
gone Futura-Red (on the AF1 showroom floor. Get some.)
The more I learn about people, the more I appreciate rocks.
Took the beast out for a ride today with the new seat and it makes a huge difference in comfort. The seat is thicker in the middle and up front were the familly jewels restI also don't slide forward so much under heavy breaking as I did before. The seat has more of a supported firm feeling to it and it seams to be approximately 25mm wider in the middle and the suede feels great to sit on, with out sliding around when wearing the leathers. If anyone is on the fence about upgrading your DD seat, have a good look at Renazco.
That is one good looking seat!!!!!!
Bringing an old thread back to life...
So, I just traded my RSVR100R/Bol d'Or in for a new Dorso 1200...black of course...never had a chance to test ride it since i had to do all the purchase negotiations over the phone prior to driving several hours to pick it up...but I guess my question for everyone would be, "is the stock seat uncomfortable or what!"...talk about pain in the ass, after about 45 minutes of riding, im wanting to get off the bike...Is it me or is the DD1200's seat that uncomfortable?
Can anyone recommend an after market seat that will improve the comfort without making the bike look like a recliner? Not really into the leather seats, but they do look very nice; just want a comfortable seat that will keep the stock look..thanks in advance!
There is no after market seat that I know of and the gel seat for the 750/1200 DD is no better then the 1200 seat. I sent my old 750 DD seat to the company listed above and its a world of difference. The 1200 seat will loosen up after a while and it's not that bad once broken in.
A little research will show you Renazco makes vinyl as well.

Looks classy Lanter. I really like it.

P.S. Looks like we shop at the same rug store
