Spyder Rt comfort seat opinion ?
Thinking of buying a rt comfort seat, but way expensive. Looking for opinions please.

If you think a Comfort Seat is expensive you obviously have not looked at third party alternatives. Only your butt can tell you which seat is best.

I have the BRP Comfort seats on both my current RT's. At around $600 each, I found them to be good deals compared to others aftermarket seats. I have also used Corbins on two previous Spyders. Over 56,000 seat miles there. BRP Comfort is the seat we prefer.
Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.
Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)
MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles
IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

CKirwin: What year is RT? I have a comfort seat off my 2011 RT that you can have at a good price. It's hardly used since I now have a 2016 RT-S.

I have the comfort seat on a 2016 RTL and really like it. Much better than the stock seat. The extra 2 inches or so you get makes a big difference. My wife and frequent passenger likes it better than the stock seat. She has never complained about the loss of a couple of inches from her seating area. I highly recommend the comfort seat.

Here's another endorsement of the Can-Am Comfort Seat. I purchased my 2018 RTL with the Comfort Seat, have since added the Can-Am Driver's Backrest, and am completely satisfied with both.

If you're looking for more leg room, the BRP comfort seat is the best option. I bought a used one off someone here for a lot less than new, even with shipping.
If you are looking for more comfort but not more room, get a gel foam kit from Motorcycle Dave.

If the extra space is not needed, Motorcycle Dave's get inserts are great. I put two in our seat and my wife and I are very happy with the results.

I have 61.5K on my Comfort Seat but, as I said, it's your butt that has to be satisfied. For those whose butts like it, it is a very reasonable price. JMO.

I have 2018 RTL. I tried stock seat, stock seat with Dave's gel inserts, Ultimate Tall Boy Seat, and Can Am Comfort Seat. Comfort Seat is my favorite.

Sir, Did you sell your comfort seat? I have a 2012 RT.

jarvis:
Yes, I still have the comfort seat. This is for the pre-2013 Spyder RTs and does not have the hole for the backrest post or any hardware. It is in great shape since it was not used for very long.
Let me know if this is what you are looking for.

I have one in to be installed on the 2020 Spyder. I will pass on my opinion when it is in place. Right now I only have 400 miles on the stock seat.
