Does anyone have the dimensions / plan for the foam in a K1100LT comfort seat? Many thanks

It appears a seat is on ebay from James Sherlock Ltd presently at a buy it now price of £69 and free dlvy. Not a comfort seat cover but no difference really in the foam. The image shows the base of a ABS2 seat. Just check to ensure before/if you buy as the seat of the ABS 1 has a different plastic base which does not fit an LT with ABS2 - the seat won't fold down as the plastic comes into conflict with the ABS pump unit, and they are advertising it as off a 1993 LT. I believe your's is an ABS2 model. Bear in mind that the close fitting cover over this seat often separated from the foam in the curved area of the riders seat depression and many were changed by BMW under warranty; due to this the bike might have been a '93 but the seat later.

Eric Clapton said he wanted to quit guitar when he heard Jimi Hendrix play. I feel kinda that way when I see a genius riding a motorcycle. But then I kick myself and try and do better.
