SARGENT SEATS WORLD SPORT PERFORMANCE SEATS

I admit it. I am a snob when it comes to one three-letter word - Ass. If you’re like most English learners, you’ve probably heard the word Ass used very frequently in English-speaking songs, movies, and TV series. In addition to its most common use (butt), you’ve probably even heard the curse word A-hole, or seen people use LMAO (Laughing My Ass Off) in internet chat. But did you know that ASS has a multitude of distinct uses that mean completely different things? Although you should be very careful with all uses of this word, did you know that the use of this word is often not bad, but in fact, it is often neutral or positive? But I am only here to talk about one thing… My ass. Yes, oh for sure I am considered an ass… mostly by women and the occasional man who isn’t thinking correctly. But for years I have been following the lead of a million Pakistani cab drivers and using a beaded buffer between my ass and God. But there are some products that rise above the rest. So, when the opportunity came to test a new Sargent Seat, I was faithfully con dent I would still be happy… or, at least my ass would be. Let us start from the beginning. Sargent has a massive website that allows you to custom create your new seat to your speci cations, colors, and comfort. I chose the World Sport Performance PLUS. This special edition series of motorcycle seats were said to be as comfortable as Sargent’s standard seats, but feature extra-tough materials, extra-tough construction, and a bold, rugged look. I liked it. With their new DTX seating area material and special side grip zones, these seats make an excellent choice for on- or off-road use. DTX offers a strong, yet comfortable seating surface with just the right amount of traction, while the special GRIPZONE side panels offer extra gripping power during braking or off-road maneuvers. And to top it off, Sargent has constructed these seats with beautiful, extra-tough double stitching for a seat built to last. That may seem like lip-service, but I have had and seen seats self-destruct. This will not happen here. Sargent seems to be the pinnacle of this part of the after-market. Still, ordering off the web always brings concern, yet this time unfounded as the seat, both rider and passenger saddles looked awesome. The piping was spot on what I had pictured, but it was about to get much better. Over the decades I have tested, ridden, and reviewed many “Custom” seats, saddles and places to put my overly exaggerated butt. No seat, not even the best stock seat. went on as easily, as brilliantly, and smoothly as this seat from Sargent. For me, as I always seem to struggle with the simplest of things, this was beyond awesome. Good on you Michelle! But, this was the other thing. Not that I needed a “Heated Seat”, but eh, – the option was there. Easy enough to install, and the heat, when full-on was VERY warm – so in my mind comfort and heat, especially in the chilly northeast is a good thing. Sargent Seats offer options for so many machines – and know that things of this nature are not inexpensive, but this is money so well worth it.
