Le MIGLIORI selle da MOTO? - Wunderlich AKTIVKOMFORT

Hi guys, how are you? I hope everything is fine. Today we will deal with a very interesting topic, that is the B side, the backrest. I know very well that if I were a woman, the topic would have been more interesting for you on the other side, but I am a convinced heterosexual, so don't get weird ideas in your head. Having said that, let's talk about the bike, because under the presentation video of the bike, in a comment you wrote to me, but your bike has a lowered set-up because I see the saddle very rushed. If you look at the line of the saddle in detail, it has this sort of concave when the original saddle of the BMW GS Adventure is practically flat and comes out at the end. The old owner left it original in this area so as not to change the connection with the tank, original in this area so as not to change the connection with the passenger's saddle, and he consumed it, he dug it a lot in the center, he consumed the padding, so much so that the leather upholstery, if you look, is no longer adherent to the padding itself. Now the question arises spontaneously, but why did the old owner consume the padding so much? This bike, especially in the Adventure version, has a height, the saddle from the ground, important, we are talking about 89 cm with the saddle in the low position and 91 cm with the saddle in the high position. I open a quick parenthesis, the saddle can be registered in the back, it can be registered in the front indistinctly, which means that we can vary the height of the saddle in this way, but we can also vary the inclination. I find this interesting because, for example, on the Supertenere I could vary only the height of the saddle, it is a plus for BMW as with these regulations we can find the position more comfortable for us. Closed parenthesis, I said an important height because 89 cm like the light from the ground are not few, they are not few if related to the mass of the bike, this bike is a heavy bike, it weighs about 260 kg with the full tank, and if we add side suitcases, trunk, frame, headlights, navigator, some engine guard bars, some accessories, I can guarantee you that arriving at 300 kg is a slap in the face. Then all these suitcases must be filled, think about when you leave and travel with your wife and your partner, it means adding another 30-40 kg of luggage and we arrive safely at 330-340 kg. So you're telling me that if I'm short I can't ride this bike, far from me to say something like that, you obviously do what you think is best. And often the trips we made before this change of life, we went more loaded than we could actually go, because my idea was to do this change of life and test the bike to understand the level, where you could reach the maximum level. I close the speech by telling you that in addition to modifying the saddle or the upholstery, you can directly buy a lowered saddle, both on the official BMW website but also on the brand websites that produce aftermarket accessories. But now let's change the subject and talk about the opposite problem, that is, when the standard saddle is too low. Now let's disassemble the saddles and go for one of the craziest unboxings of my life. we put it back in place and the game is done. Now I put it back in the low part, then I'll show you why. So I leave the low position in the front and the high position in the back. The button that I was telling you is this, you release the plate, the plate is lifted and you can rotate. Let's remove the original saddles, I also tell you this, first crazy package, second package, equally crazy. For those who know the brand know very well that we are talking about German jewelers, these do not produce accessories for the bike but they produce precious metals, in the sense that they are not as good as the others but they have amazing prices. Anyway, they make really interesting products. You will have understood that inside there are the GS Adventure saddles, in the larger box there is the driver's saddle, in the smaller box there is the passenger's saddle. You see the boxes open because they arrived a long time ago, they did not resist, I have already tried them, also because I can talk about it here on the channel. But I put them back in the box to show you the packaging. In case you would like to order them, they will arrive in this way. In the passenger saddle there are rubbers to be installed on the bike, then we will see them together. But the saddles arrive in this case, a kind of saddle bag. Here it is guys, here it is. Let's move on to the driver's one, it does not have rubbers to be installed, obviously it is bigger and heavier. The bag is the same and I also chose the same finish, but then I'll talk about it. Here it is. We take the saddle and we take the rubbers. Here is the box, another saddle. These are the Wunderlich Active Comfort saddles. I told you that they are for GS Adventure, but I told you a joke because these saddles are for both GS Adventure and standard PGS. In the sense, there is no distinction between standard and adventure. The distinction is found in the height of the ground, that is, the driver's saddle is made in the high version, the standard version and the low version. While the passenger's saddle is made in the standard version. In addition, there are different types in relation to your bike. If you have the GS HP, if you have the GS 40th, etc. But I'm old inside and I took the totally black saddle. At Wunderlich they say that under the beating sun the temperature recorded on the saddle is about 25 degrees less than a conventional saddle. All the seams are obviously heat-welded. The material is non-slip, so in case of braking it does not slip towards the front. The chassis of the saddle and the frame are identical to the original one. Both for the driver's saddle and for the passenger's saddle. Where there is the attachment for the two keys provided by BMW. On the side there is the embossed Wunderlich logo. In the front you see this sort of creased leather. Which serves precisely to cover that hole when you register the saddle in the high position towards the tank. First of all, I show you this detail. Look also in the back. We are going to position the saddle in the high position. In this way. Look at the front. Maybe from here you can see better. The hole is closed by this creased leather. Now, however, we bring the saddle back to the low position in the front. In the back, instead, we leave the regulation high. So low in front and high behind. In this position, the creased leather remains hidden between the saddle and the tank. Moving on to the passenger's saddle, I told you that we find this package inside the box. That is, look at the instructions. In the back are indicated the original BMW rubbers. While the other four original Wunderlich. Under the saddle we have to add two square-shaped rubbers. Taking the saddle, the rubbers must be glued here. These rubbers, with the saddle in position, must be lowered on this rib. Practically, the saddle should remain very stable. The rubbers are these. Also on the rubbers we put a little silicone spray, especially in the area below. To make them come out better. Here is the first. Here is the second. Also the third is gone. I would not want to take them with pliers so as not to ruin them. Fifth is gone. Sixth is gone. And we saved them all. Let's put the spray back. Ok. Let's find the saddle and see if the exact configuration. Anyway, these are much softer than these. In my opinion, here are the original BMW because they are close to the attack. If they were more protruding, maybe it would be difficult to insert the saddle. It would be necessary to move the utensils from the original saddle to this one, but we will do it. Now let's go and insert. Nice, stable. The two behind must remain original, so thinner. While the other two a little thicker, that is those of the Wunderlich. Even tonight we did it. I'll show you a side view. View from above in detail. The passenger seat is wider than the original, it has this concave. Therefore, both in acceleration and braking, the passenger remains quite blocked. While the driver's seat, look how wide it is. The support surface is a lot. I can assure you that after an hour it seems to be sitting on a armchair. The front area is very narrow. This is interesting because if at this point the saddle was wider, we would remain with our legs open. So we struggle to touch the ground. While the rear area is very wide. So they did a great job of compromise between the rear area and the front area. Wide support surface and still narrow enough to be able to support the feet well on the ground. At this point, when you stretch your leg, you will feel a certain pressure. But I repeat, they made the best compromise from my point of view. Arrived at the end, the price is painful. I paid 771 euros for both seats. I bought them about a month ago. I looked at the site of Wunderlich and they have increased a little. Returning to the finishes and quality, they are of a very high level. Moving on to comfort, I did only 300 km. I can tell you that as you sit down, they seem hard. But after an hour or two, you appreciate the consistency. At least this is my point of view. In this specific case, I took the high saddle. The high saddle is 5 mm higher than the Adventure saddle. As for the standard GS, the high saddle is 25 mm higher. You have 60 days as a receipt. So you can try them. If you don't like them, you can return them. What to say guys?
