      Bro you can look at adding extra foam on the seats. In this case use high quality foam and it would need a few days to soften up.

      Also, you could look at gel pads, either as a strap on strap off or as a permanent fitment on your seat. Redlineplus.in has both options with them which you can use as a starting point to research and choose the most convenient option for you. Keep us posted buddy.

          Yup agree that gel pads are expensive at will cost you about 2200 - 2500 per seat BUT they feel awesome.

          The foam on the other hand will, most probably, cost you just half of that amount. Not very sure about the foam bro coz I have a strap on gel seat for pillion and I find the rider seat comfortable for the 'long distance' me so never delved into the details on it.

              There was even an Activa in the Group bro... So, I had no other options than to ride below 80's.

                Oh, very painful experience. But the ride is best enjoyed at low speeds, I've realize that a LOT. I've ridden 190 Kms on my Activa by the way only ended with severe back pain....however my Activa is as smooth as a car....

                Anyway, I too have plans to go there, but no time for that. Nowadays started walking rather than picking my NS considering the traffic and weather . Will plan soon.

                  ok

                  1. if i use the strap on off gel seat , is there any risk of it getting stolen ?

                  2. can we switch strap on gel seat from rider to pillion seat and vice versa as per need ?

                  3. can i get it from any local dealer ?

                    Must agree bro. The traffic here is too heavy and started using Metro for Long distant commutes within the city..

                    Ping Me if I can join with you on the ride bro

                      Does anyone have any idea about discontinuation of AS200?

                      Because in Kolkata showrooms they are saying that it's booking & availability is closed for over a month.

                        1. Yes absolutely it can be stolen bro considering the unfortunate theft rate in the country
                        2. Yes we can provided it is a generic seat and not designed as per the shape of the rider or pillion seat
                        3. Not sure about this bro. I ordered one from redlineplus.in with 1/2 inch gel pad and foam layering for my pillion

                          1. so that means i have to detach the gel seat and carry it with me whenever i park the vehicle and then re-attach it whenever i want to use it , right ?

                          2. bro have u heard about ride on air ? if yes , what's ur opinion on that ?

                          Thanks for ur help btw

                            Hey guys facing an issue with the bike actually I don't know that is it common for NS or limited to only mine.

                            The issue is when I ride the the bike even for 2-3 kms and rev it till 5k rpm even after such a short distance ride when I get down from the I feel the engine heat and can smell it too.

                              Unfortunately yes it would need to be that way bro. I would still suggest u to look for a permanent gel solution. You could also look at foaming up your seat however that is bound to add an inch or two to the height.

                              Ive heard about it but have never personally tried it brother so it would unfair of me to comment.

                              Cheers bro ...
