Hi, it said to come here to say hello. I guess I've been searching wrong b/c I haven't come across this site before.
I've owned my 2012 R1200R since februray of 2012! It is my first bike and she is my baby.
...Perhaps not the best place to ask, but I have not seen much threads on it yet: are there any suggestions for custom seats? I've found Corbin and Rich's (who mentions on his site that he'll work on Corbins for a price...makes me wonder about Corbins 0.o lol). I'm mostly comfortable in the seat but my girlfriend can only go for about an hour riding with me before she can stop. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions. Maybe I should just start a thread on this?

Welcome Dave! Before buying a seat, you might want to try an Airhawk Pillion pad. See below:

Hey Ninja Dave :donatello:

As DrDave said, check that airhawk seat, I bought one and the wife rides longer and more often with that installed on the passenger side.

Take a look at this thread. http://www.r1200rforum.com/forum/bmw-r1200r-appearance-10/whats-best-aftermarket-seat-rider-pillion-1044/

And this one too: http://www.r1200rforum.com/forum/bmw-r1200r-general-discussions-7/freedom-air-sport-seat-cushion-1123/
