Touratech comfort seat for the BMW F 900 GS

With advanced ergonomic features, the Touratech comfort seat takes riding pleasure on the BMW F 900 GS to a whole new level – both in off-road use and on long-distance rides.

Tough terrain and long-distance travel – these two extremes define the exceptionally broad range of applications for the BMW F 900 GS. The ergonomic requirements for this agile adventure bike are accordingly complex, particularly for the seat as the central interface between rider and vehicle.
With its new one-piece comfort seat, Touratech offers a well-thought-out alternative to the standard seat. The use of state-of-the-art materials, backed by decades of experience in seat construction, makes this highly functional product the first choice for touring motorcyclists as well as for adventure riders.

 

Multi-layer foam core
As with all Touratech comfort seats, a multi-layer core made of particularly high-quality foams is used. Depending on the seat height, individually matched foam formulations are used to achieve a precisely defined ratio of support and cushioning. The ergonomically shaped seat surface with integrated relief zone in the coccyx area noticeably reduces pressure points. A precisely designed seat angle supports a natural, upright sitting position and helps reduce fatigue on long journeys.


Sophisticated geometry
The seat's geometry is designed to achieve a short crotch length despite the thick padding. This ensures that even smaller riders can reach the ground. The one-piece construction also allows unrestricted freedom of movement when riding off-road, especially when shifting weight frequently while standing or sitting.

 

Functional Fresh Touch seat cover
The patented Fresh Touch material is used as the cover fabric. It is characterized by demonstrably lower surface heating when exposed to sunlight and remains up to ten degrees Celsius cooler than conventional seat covers. The new material structure is slip-resistant, waterproof, easy to care for, and designed for use in changing weather conditions.
In terms of appearance, the comfort seat is based on the striking Trophy design of the BMW F 900 GS. The red, white, and blue colour scheme blends seamlessly into the vehicle design.


Three seat heights for individual ergonomics
The Touratech comfort seat is available in three heights: low (approx. 54 cm), standard (approx. 56 cm ≙ series) and high (approx. 58 cm); each measured vertically from the footrest to the lowest point of the seat. It is delivered completely ready for installation and can be mounted without any adjustments to the vehicle. It is handmade in Germany. Additional colour options are in development.
