Seat with fuel opening
Hi everyone, I was looking through all the questions and didn't see anything about aftermarket seats that are made with some kind of cut out so you can fuel up without having to get off.
any help is welcome!!
thank you

any seat can be hinged to allow access to the gas cap

Both Corbin and Ultimate Seats have built-in full doors!

Thank you everyone. I did read through all the answers. I made my own modification when I bought the bike in February last year but I was looking to upgrade the seat. Thank you.

Addition to the thread "Am i the only one"
Ok I also wanted the fuel door since I travel long distance on my RT with a big bag on the back seat. So two years ago at SF I purchased an Ultimate Seat with the fuel door. I love the seat EXCEPT ! The fuel door rubs my legs and after a 100 miles or so really starts to hurt. I have been in contact with ultimate and sent pictures and according to them it is installed properly and they have never heard of this issue. So I purchased a "sheep skin" cover to go over the door since I can just lift it up to get fuel with no real effort but the metal from the door still pushes into my leg just takes a little longer to start being an issue. I am not upset with Ultimate BUT I paid a lot of money for that seat and the only issue is the fuel door which is why I purchased it to begin with. So am I the only one in history with this issue or the only one to report it ? Does anyone have an idea on how to fix it ?

I have the Corbin and the door is leather like the seat and fits in tight..has a finger depression to open. That door was the only down side I saw to the Ultimate...and if it rubbed on my leg I, like you, would be looking for a solution. I use the Misty Mt Sheepskin and I don't have to raise seat to fuel...I don't hook the elastic on the left side and it stays in place very well...what sheepskin did you get? Hope you get that solved soon..
