2017 SV650 Owner Testimonials
(From talk lists & Holeshot e-mail)
Hello ... Dale and Liza,
Here is an update to my original review of the Holeshot Corbin seat for the SV650 after a great ride!
Just rode my SV650 with the Holeshot Corbin seat from Miami to Everglades City (great stone crabs), Fort Myers (Edison and Ford Museum and Houses), Sanibel Island (best shelling beach anywhere!) and back to Miami. Over 500 Miles this weekend.
The seat made this possible. It has changed what I can do with my motorcycle. I wouldn’t have lasted more than an hour on the stock seat which is a medieval Japanese torture device (hard as a 2x4 and my gear kept on creeping back because of the slope, very uncomfortable.)
If you have an SV650, get the seat so you can actually use and enjoy your bike. Money well spent. Manuel in Florida
Hi Dale,
Well...I've got 600 miles on the 2017 SV 650 Holeshot seat now, and I have to give it a thumbs up. A big improvement over the factory seat. Lots of compliments also from others on the looks of it.
Thanks again Eddie Brown
Hi Dale,
Just a quick email expressing my thanks to both you and Liza. I recently installed your 14" street core, air box mod with K&N and fuel controller on my 2017 SV 650. The bike runs like a scalded ape, it's truly a night and day difference. I wasn't interested in more top end and/or speed as much as torque. I ride a lot of mountain passes, small back roads and twisties and it feels like a whole new bike. I tend to be quite vain when it comes to my bikes, only buying the best and you all truly delivered on these product's. Thx so much. I look forward to shopping with all again. Keith H.
Hey Dale,
Photos attached of my 2018 UK Model SV 650 Stock and Holeshot Seat. I found the stock for me became uncomfortable after only half an hour or so. I actually ditched it will thin the hour and installed the Holeshot.
With your Holeshot seat I rode for at least 100+ miles without and discomfort whatever. The best thing I find, is (as I'm a larger rider) the curve at the back takes pressure off your legs and actually pushes your knees into the tank, thus improving handling in corners which is a huge bonus.
I'd recommend your seat to anyone who wants to actually enjoy riding an SV 650 for any longer period of time!
And it also looks awesome!
Thank you, Richard Walker (United Kingdom)
Hi Dale,
I love my 2018 SV-650 Holeshot Seat. It is soft and ergonomically perfect. Even after 2 hours of riding, I was fine and there were no aches or pains. The seat fits perfectly. It is very durable and the materials used are top notch.
Thank you for a great product! Sushil Pai (New York)
Hi Dale,
My seat just came in yesterday for my 2018 SV 650 and I absolutely love it. Rode a quick 120 miles and I am head over heels with it. I can't thank you and Lisa enough for your timely service and special touches along the way. Attached are a couple of pictures of the seat on my bike. Looks and rides amazing. Thanks again.Neil Antieau
