In this video I compare the different seat options there are for the Hypermotard 950.
I have been asked numerous times on my other videos and forums to describe the differences in the OEM seat and the lowered seat I purchased. I decided to make a video to clarify some of those questions. I compare the OEM seat to the lowered seat I purchased. I talk about the best option for shorter riders. I describe in detail the different measurements and the different qualities on the seats mentioned.I also talk about options for taller riders and go into detail on the different styles, qualities and comfort for longer rides.
Below I have placed the links of the different seat options I discussed in my video:

This is a truly informative video. Re: Mike Corbin seat(s) - over the years I had three custom seats from them and it's a 5⭐️ operation. They're located in the Castroville/Salinas area. The wonderful thing about them is that if you can ride to their shop, they will contour the seat while you wait; you can go for a ride in the area, and if it needs tweaking, they'll take it apart - contour it and cover it again. I had one seat for a ZX-11 whose factory seat was too soft and didn't provide it rider feedback - the new one addressed that. For a Ducati, I wanted one that was thin as a plank and a few millimeters narrower than factory. They are really good, and the seats are made right there. Thanks for this video.

I rode up to Corbin in Ormond Beach and ordered a seat for my 939. I can't wait for it to get here cuz the stock seat on this 2016 is unbearable for long rides however the riding position doesn't make my tailbone hurt like my KLR does. Slouching on this bike is not easy

Good to see. I’m 5’8 but with short legs. I’d love the SP but I’m leaning towards the standard model (or the RVE). I also think maybe the Ohlins would be overkill for me/a bit harsh on the street.

@Ramon51650 2 года назад

Hi- I hope all is well. Three weeks ago I rodeo Mike Corbin in Hollister. Five hours later I rode away on a custom seat that has totally changed the riding experience. I feel/ride more planted, so I feel like I'm one with the bike and not merely sitting atop it. The very friendly crew at Corbin aim to please.

@nickyjim12 2 года назад

This is video I’ve been hoping for, a vertically challenged guy like myself at 5’5 there isn’t many good bike options. Its really discouraging when looking at bikes you love but can’t comfortably ride, or ride with true confidence.

@myhypermotard8351 2 года назад

I totally understand that feeling. The good thing is that there are lots of other great options. Keep looking, I’m sure you’ll find one th fits you.

@InsanitySep 3 года назад

Awesome video! I've got the standard 950 (as if anything is standard for this bike :D) and the comfort seat and I must say, it is definitely an upgrade I wouldn't want to miss. That is of course if you got the height to support the heightened seat, for me at 6'2 it's great. But even with the comfort seat, any tour / ride over 3 hours definitely needs a break and a seat not slicing your butt in half :P

@myhypermotard8351 3 года назад

Yeah, that OEM seat is pretty stiff. Thanks for commenting, ride safe.

@zakandoz9614 2 года назад

Love this video! Exactly what I'm looking for. Do you know if you can shave down the lowered Ducati seat even more?

@myhypermotard8351 2 года назад

I took it to a guy that shaves seats and he said no. It would be left with no padding.

@emat9013 3 года назад

Great video ..I’m strongly considering this bike with the low seat. I’m 5’8 How tall are you?

@myhypermotard8351 3 года назад

I am exactly 5'8. The lowered seat is a must, trust me. You will not regret getting this bike, it is a blast to ride. Let me know if I can answer any question regarding the bike. I was where you are at this time last year and haven't regretted my decision. Thank you for commenting, ride safe.

@trevorelger1620 2 года назад

Hey mate Im thinking of getting wone of these bikes for a allrounder, would the lower seat be OK for touring on, want do you think.

@myhypermotard8351 2 года назад

I used the lower seat all the time, it’s very comfortable.

IS it hard to replace the battery on the hypermotard?

@myhypermotard8351 3 года назад

No, it is very easy to take out.

@alpap1980 3 года назад

Do you think there is enough margin to shave 10mm from the low seat?

@myhypermotard8351 3 года назад

Great question, I thought about doing that as well when I got it, but I never got a chance to take it to check. I really just got used to the lower seat. But would really like to know as well. The OEM seat for sure you cannot shave any. Please let me know if you do find out. Thanks for commenting.

@alpap1980 3 года назад

@@myhypermotard8351 Sometimes height may be misleading. I mean a 5 8" with a 30" inseam may find the seat height tall but a 5 8" with a 32" inseam may be ok. One important thing also before messing with a genuine seat is to secure that after fiddling with it it will remain waterproof if it is already is. I will let you know if I get to know about the low seat.

@myhypermotard8351 3 года назад

@@alpap1980 It should remain water proof if you keep the same cover which is what they normally do.

It should.
