It works, but …??
It is effective, but it seems like the Gel should be a little thicker. View detail
Satisfied with comfort of use
I used to get sore slowly after riding for about 2 hours, and I had to take a break and revive myself a little, or ride standing up to get over it, but this has helped a lot.
It does not eliminate the pain at all, but it does make a difference.

It works!
It is not painless, but it is effective.
Until now, the pain started gradually after 200 kilometers, and from about 400 kilometers, I had to shift my hips while riding, and by 600 kilometers, the pain was still there the next day.
After installing the Gel Zab c, I am comfortable and only a little sore after driving 600 km.
As for Demerit, I have not experienced it in winter, but it keeps warm in summer so well that you would think it has a Seat heater, so I recommend putting something on the Seat before leaving the Motorcycle on sunny days starting around June.
The Curve at the tip of the Cover has a drawstring, and I don't like the way it is made because it looks unnatural, but it has reduced the pain considerably, and it looks very nice without the Cover on.
I think this is the most effective of the covered Type products.
If this does not work, I recommend One-off.

Thin but effective
The SV650 has two large drawbacks. One is that it is not cool looking, and the other is that the seat is too thin. The other is the thinness of the seat, which causes a chronic pain in my ass when I ride my motorcycle and even makes me wonder why I have to go so far on my days off. I bought EFFEX Gel Zab R and it has been half a year since I bought it. The ass is now Large and sturdy. The SV650 has almost no more defects except for its appearance. View detail

I guess it's a passing grade.
I bought it to improve the difficulty of REBEL 1100 Most Large, buttock pain.
Rate each of the following three items on a 5-point scale.
・OEMSeat
Honeycomb structure seat cushion made in China for $3,000 purchased at Ama
Seat cover here
(Sitting comfort)
OEMSeat 5 points
1 Chinese cushion
EFFEX 4 points
OEM is the best for the feeling of being wrapped and stable at the moment of sitting down, and the EFFEXSeat cover sits full back in line with the hollow of the Seat, and the Gel inside is pushed forward a little as if it is being pushed out.
The seating position is a little uncomfortable, but there is no slippage.
Chinese cushions are slippery in any case, and if you don't intentionally stick your butt back, you will find yourself sliding all the way to the front of the cushion.
When the brake is applied a little too steeply, or when cornering with the brakes down, it sometimes slips and makes the user feel scared.
(Exterior)
OEMSeat 5 points
1 Chinese cushion
EFFEX 4 points
The OEM is a matter of course, and Chinese is excluded because it is a cushion, but the most regrettable part of this seat cover is the excess part on the front side, which I think is the result of allowing the dimension rose to reduce production cost.
I would have given it a perfect score if it weren't for this tackiness.
(Texture)
OEMSeat 3 items
1 Chinese cushion
EFFEX 4 points
The feel and surface of the Seat cover is better than the OEM. The OEM is more like Vinyl than artificial leather, and is more prone to scratches.
(Buttock pain ★This is the most important evaluation point)
OEMSeat 2 items
5 Chinese cushions
EFFEX 3-4 points
Perhaps it is because the REBEL's riding posture places the load vertically, but if you sit in the same position for a long time, the cushion collapses and sticks to the plastic base, so when running at high speeds where the seating position cannot be shifted, the pain starts to appear after about 30 minutes and becomes unbearable after an hour of running. After an hour of running, it becomes unbearable. (Of course, there are individual differences such as weight, etc.) Even when driving down the road for 2 hours, it's not an unbearable Level, but it's still a pain.
I can't evaluate this Seat cover clearly because I have only tried it on a downhill road, but after about 2 hours of driving, I felt the stiffness caused by the cushion collapsing, although I didn't feel any obvious pain, so I feel that I can go for 2 hours at high speed.
The only thing that doesn't give me butt pain by a long shot is Chinese cushions.
Since it is easy to put on and take off, I think I will settle for always putting on this Seat cover, putting on the Chinese seat cushion only when driving at high speed with Ron Two, and taking off the seat cushion when driving down the road.

This could be pretty good.
Until now, even if I rode for only 30 minutes, my hips and lower back would ache and I would have to take a break.
I rode about 200km after installing the Gel Zab. 2 hours of continuous riding was fine and I can use it for long distance touring.
It was a little difficult to put on because of the Exactly design.
The texture is also a good one that does not detract from the OEMSeat.
I was worried because of the high price, but it was the right decision to buy Large.

I like that it is Exclusive Design.
I mainly use it for commuting, but when I go touring, I often ride around 500 km, so I was hoping to find a seat that would not tire me out.
I like that it is an Exclusive Design and is easy to install, fits perfectly and neatly, and does not feel like an afterthought.
Vibrations and shocks transmitted from the seat surface are reduced and ride comfort is improved.

Just fit
I had been using a similar product but was having trouble with the fit and comfort.
I bought it to see how much of a difference it would make, and I am Large satisfied with both Just fit & comfort.
It is also active in Touring.
When attaching, the Seat is removed and pulled on all four sides while tightening with the string at the tip.
It takes about 5-10 minutes. No problem for anyone.

It's soft, but I'm not satisfied with the price.
It's softer than expected. The price is not cheap, but the quality is excellent. It's good for the prostate because it only contains the gel around the hip bone. I wish the price was a bit cheaper. Very useful when traveling long distances. Shipping is fast. Made in Japan. no see. -------------------------------------------------- -------- It's more tight than I thought. The price is not cheap but the quality is excellent. Only the hip bones contain gels, so it's good on the prostate. I hope the price is cheaper. It is very useful for long trips. Delivery is fast.

Improvement of Seat without Anya
I bought a Seat with Other Brand Product skin on my GSX1100S KATANA. I noticed after I bought it that it seemed to be very bean-crumbed, and the ride was hard, and the corners hit my inner thighs hard because of the original shape. I put in the Gel zab and made it so that it softens around the gills. I am highly satisfied. View detail
Longer Ride time is also possible.
[How is it used?
I bought them because I want to ride my motorcycle for longer distances and longer periods of time without worrying about buttock pain, and also because when I ride a vehicle with a short distance between the footpeg and seat height, my knees bend too much and I want to alleviate that a little more.
[Was it as per Image?
The design and color are not at all eye-catching, so it does not stand out even if it is installed on a Seat. Also, when you touch the surface, the built-in gel is exquisitely soft and thick, so it is expected to be effective.
How was your experience with it?
It has successfully reduced buttock pain from riding for long periods of time and has created a little bit of seat height (just a little bit), which has improved the bending of my knees. I use it on my SUPER CUB on a daily basis and find it very convenient as it can be quickly removed when needed and installed on other vehicles without the need for tools, perfect for Asia production vehicles where seat and rear suspension tend to be set solidly.
[Points to note]
Because the belt is made long, the magic tape part may play depending on the shape and size of the seat. Therefore, the Magic tape part may come in contact with a part of the vehicle in some cases.
How did it compare to other products?
There are lower priced products available than this product, but this product seems to be better considering its effectiveness.

Installed on SV650X
The Urethane was not hollowed out, but simply laid down as it was, and was neatly implemented without any visible bumps.
The pain in my buttocks has improved dramatically, and I used to have such a hard time sitting in the office chair on Monday after riding full time on Saturday and Sunday, but that pain is now gone.
If you ride for 4-5 hours in a row, you will get pain from the pressure, but it is not Large pain, and the pain will go away as soon as you take a break for 30 minutes. Damage to the cells of the buttocks due to thrusting is almost Zero.
Besides the pain, there were three other improvements.
One is that the tilt has been eliminated and the seat surface has been increased, allowing the Seat to sit in its natural place slightly behind the Seat. This made it easier to apply load to the Rear.
Two, the Seat height increases, making it easier to fall over and crowd.
Thirdly, I am 177cm and the OEM was tight in the knees due to the close proximity of the seat and footpeg, but this has also been improved.
The OEMs are too much anxious.
Seat on SV650X is very bad.
And the Damage to the buttocks is egregious because the suspension is terrible.
(I'm writing drunk, so there may be typos or funny sentences, but you get the idea.)

The pain in the buttocks was relieved, but ...
The vehicle in which it is installed is a Honda 400X. Sure, the degree of pain has lessened, but my sitting time is limited to an hour and a half.
For me, a height of 168cm, the 12mm increase in the seat height from 800mm has considerably increased my feeling of insecurity in terms of my footing.
Considering the cost performance, it was difficult to judge whether it was the right decision to purchase the items.

If it's a hassle to remove the Seat and wrap the Belt, ……
It is installed on Initial ModelBirdCity125.
I also use Gel Zab R with Belt with Large type NAKED, but I also go touring with 125 Scooter which I use for shopping etc., so I bought it with Timing for Seat reupholstering.
I didn't want the seat to bulge, so according to the Instruction Manual, I could cut off up to 2cm of the thin edge that doesn't have the gels in it, so I cut off that portion. I cut the Seat cushion in the shape of the Gel part, and put the Seat cover on it.
As a result, the wider Tandem side blended in well, but on the narrower forward side, the Gel zab appeared on the Seat surface, either because the Cushion was not sharpened enough or because the Gel deflection caused it to expand.
However, there is no problem in terms of use.
Yes, it does hurt when sitting all the time, but due in part to the difference in the shape of the Riding position and Seat, I feel that the Scooter takes a slower time to hurt compared to the NAKED.
If your Seat is large, I think this type is better.
It may be installed to refreshing the appearance of the Seat, but it may be better to think of this more as a way to avoid the hassle of installing it with a Belt on a Motorcycle for everyday use.
After installing it, I am now able to comfortably enjoy a short ride for shopping and other purposes.

Improved seating comfort
I don't have back pain, but I'm not a skinny guy and I don't have butt fat, so I'm not that uncomfortable Seat, but I still get sore after a few hours of riding!
I wish there was an OEMErgo Seat or something like KTM's out there, but there isn't, so I'm going to get one like this.
There are many things to worry about, from 5,000 yen to 10,000 yen - even 5,000 yen is expensive, but I don't want it to be ineffective, so I'm thinking long and hard about it.
Urethane mat type is comfortable at first, but after an hour on a chair at home, the effect is gone and rejected.
Gel is hard, but looks good for a long time, so I chose this one, although it is expensive
Refreshing and Fit to Zixxer Seat Shape is good
It is expensive. It's very nice and Large sturdy even if you leave it riding for two hours or so.
10,000 yen and up for a chair seems like a pretty high-end product, but I'm not sitting on a chair at home for two hours! (Lol)

The second-half type of aprilia RS250 It equipped.
Since the width of a sheet and a form did not suit me, it is overall. The work which also deletes the portions of red-bean-paste omission and a side was done simultaneously, and since the hole was also opening the leather which passed for ten years or more, leather was also exchanged.
If facing is stripped off The sponge surface had discolored and it was hard.
When deleted on the whole, sponge became soft, but the location which places GERUZABU was deleted more than GERUZABU thickness, and processed the whole sheet.
The product itself The circumference had become the shape of thin sponge, and since it was a halfway size, it was cut and used.
When it could do, I wanted you to make the whole into uniform thickness.
Since soft leather was used, he wanted for original unevenness of GERUZABU to also have been transparent, to have been visible, and to carry out by seemingly being appearance normal this time, but if the person who sees sees, it will be the form which turns out to be GERUZABU insertion.
If it equips without red-bean-paste-omission-processing it, I will feel that it is slightly disgraceful.
Although it is use comment of wearing, it is even short distance, not to mention a long distance, until now. Although it was slightly serious by vibration which affects the waist, it is after wearing. It was thought that it was clearly soft and was carrying out vibration absorption.
Tuckers are cheap things, processing will become somehow, if leading [ of pliers, the slotted screwdriver etc. ] is carried out and they are performed, but if it is not the more dexterous one, it is likely to suffer troubles.
If cut processing is carried out comparatively [ with a high price ], he will be surprised at cheap structure.
I want you to consider the form and a variation which demotes a value to a slight degree, or is more easy to process it.

Gel is easy on the hips.
I have been riding ZEPHYR1100 for 25 years. I guess the urethane is too hard, not the spongy one, but the hardness of the urethane. The combination of the decline of the buttock muscles and the shabby rear suspension made it impossible for me to ride for 5 hours. I had groin pain and lower back pain.
I thought about uncoating, but my dad at Motorcycle shop recommended this. No problem to install.
The effect on touring is not yet, but when I use it for commuting, I have a feeling that the Gel absorbs fine vibrations. The sticky feeling is good. It is 1cm thick, but I don't mind the footing. There are some wrinkles from sagging, but it does not bother me when I sit on it.

Very comfortable
I asked the Seat shop to modify and install the OEMSeat.
The OEMSeat on the R nineT is split front and rear, with SS in both front and rear.
In my case, I felt discomfort in my buttocks after an hour or so with NORMAL, but after processing, I have no problem on the front seat side even when I use it for touring, such as driving 600 km round trip in two days.
However, the rear seats were not as comfortable as the front seats because the footpeg position was relatively high and more weight was distributed to the buttocks.
Still, I find it tough to spend long periods of time in Tandem if I don't have Gel Zab in.
I am glad I was able to get in.
Incidentally, although I had experience in reupholstering Seat Covers, I did not have the tools or experience to shave the anchors, so I asked PRO to do the installation.
