XS Folks,
I did a bit of riding today and plan to do a whole lot more. I have two SG's. One has a very comfortable "TRAVELCADE" seat cover the other has an unknown (apparently aftermarket) seat cover that is rather stiff and not nearly as comfy.

There may also be some differences in the foam but I suspect the major difference is the very stiff covering itself. I want to try a new padded cover or something to get a better feel to the non-comfy seat. It's amazing how two bikes can "FEEL" so different because of the seats. I don't feel as "in control" of the bike with the non-comfy seat as it is just not as easy to hold my buns in the saddle.
I did a search for TRAVELCADE on Evil-Bay and Amazon. I assume this is a brand that is gone as I didn't get any hits on this?
There are a couple items offered on the low-end of the spectrum that may be of very questionable quality. I'm also not interested in the very upper end (i.e. $$$$$$$) of the spectrum either.
Any experience with aftermarket covers you could share? Brands to avoid? Quality Issues? Etc.
Thanks,
KURT
