It's 5 mm. I installed them yesterday. Can't wait to try them out. Looks good!

Thank you for the above posts and pictures! I ordered the Rizoma MA011B today for my 2019 FTR. I need to get a drill. Any suggestions on drill bit sizes for the holes? Jigs use 5 mm, I've also seen 3.5 mm suggested for other bikes. I work on my machines in a storage unit and my tools right now...

I do a lot of long distance trips, riding all day. So my ass hurts proper on those seats. And I happen to have wear and tear injuries in my back. They appear slightly different but thanks to both of you I now realize they haven't changed. I'm eyeing a Corbin, will see if Saddlemen can do a...

They didn't even improve them a tiny bit??? 😭 Just to make them a little less painful? I'd order it if it was half decent and take some pain on the long rides, which is most days. Thx for the reality check!

Hi, The original seat on the 2019 model was a medieval torture device. The worst seat I ever had, there was hardly any padding. Thankfully the rest of the bike is awesome. It led me to get a Saddlemen seat which fixed the problem. I want to change the look of my bike though and like the new...

Thank you for the links! I appreciate it. After learning there's been delays in getting them, and it was currently available, I just ordered one from my dealer. Got it within a few days. Turns out it's still available in the first link above if anyone else is looking. Happy riding!

Hi, Is the luggage rack still available? Thx! Ian

Hi, Does anyone have an OEM luggage rack for sale? I'm in Canada. Thx! Ian

Who says the FTR isn't comfortable? Was on the road for 13+ hours yesterday in the Laurentian mountains, Quebec. Comfy all day. Rally bars and the Saddlemen seat made all the difference. Crazy fun!

ForTheRandy I ended up getting a Saddlemen CF seat and it's a big improvement over stock. Got about 500 km on it. Top quality, looks great and even though it likely needs to break in some more it's already more comfortable on longer rides. I tend to ride all day and long distances. The little...

Cool! Welcome from Montreal. Enjoy your new machine, it's a lot of fun!!

haha cool! That would have been a nice trek. I tend to ride all day and long distances, all sorts of machines without issue. My dad went Polaris this year with his snowmobile and although he liked the quality of it he hated the seat. Tried to have it improved/customized. He went back to BRP for...

Thanks for that! Hope you get your seat soon and like it. With that markup it would be $$. I rode the FTR all day yesterday, adjusted my position on it. The seat still sucks. By the end of it I just wanted to jump off on the highway. I've ridden sportbikes for 12+ hour days with np. Don't know...

haha yeah they do make a nice pair and are both fun to play with :) Having a blast on the FTR! Rode it all day yesterday with a grin ear to ear. Adjusted my position on it, seat still sucks. Planning on throwing on a Saddlemen, just trying to figure out which one of the three. Shopping for...

Thx I'll look that up. Only thing I didn't like so far is the seat. I tend to sit further back from the tank and was pushing up against where it rises. Looking through forums and researching seat options as a first thing to get. I'll try and adjust my position tomorrow too. Amazing bike! Great...
