I was looking for a nice light weight seat that doesn't hurt my ass while driving, that Kirkey was kinda killer and didn't really fit the look of my ride. So, I went with this 19lbs carbon kevlar seat from Seibon. It's pretty comfortable and supportive from what I can tell.

Note: If you are not at least a 34 waist then this seat is a no go for you..

Thanks, should help shed weight when hauling 90-100lbs worth of cake! It's a daily and also a commercial vehicle.

I'm assuming not a lot of turbo boosting or TQ vectoring with the sh-awd with that kind of cargo.

Driver is 78-80lbs and passenger is about 65lbs.

Seibon seats 18.9lbs driver and Seibon passenger 18.9lbs

I would say a total savings of roughly 100lbs.
