I recently bought a new seat on my M7. I had been looking at the options,but mainly looked at 2010 m-seat, I was looking for a used one,but got a great deal on a new one at "country cat overstock" $249. I haven´t ridden it, but I am sure I will like it because most people are.
The reason I am talking about this, is when I was looking at the options I found most of the aftermarket seats are ridiculously expensive. New Boss seat is $488.
So I am just curious to know are backcountry mountain guys really willing to spend around $500 for a seat the hardly use, except when they are on the trail?
If I am really honest I bought the seat also because I think it will make the sled look a little bit better or more modern, I am standing 80-90% of the time and the old m-seat is great to swing your leg over when sidehilling.
So are aftermarket seats mostly about getting the the sleds to look better? what do you guys think?
I know on some new sleds the are getting to high like on the new proclimb. and shorter guys need lower seats, but I am mostly talking about the m-series in this threat.
thanks
