Can't open the Facebook item.  I have owned the Comfort seat but not sure what you mean by the difference.  But, in height it's 10mm taller than the low seat for the front. Same at the back but wider.  All are heated and much  more comfortable than the standard seats.  Once fitted they are not adjustable for height as the adjustment bits at the front and centre have to be removed.  I have a 29" inside leg but had no problem with it.There is an extra low version that was fitted as standard to the lowered RT.  It's thin, unheated and uncomfortable, apparently. Both are one piece bench seats.

You might have to have joined the group? They're pretty quick at responding when you request to join.

You're quite right, but being a non-believer, it's never going to happen.

Thanks Simbo, I can't see it at the minute as I'm not part of the facebook group so have sent a request to join. Hopefully they'll accept and I can have a look.

If you have gone for the comfort, I think you will a happy bunny. Much comfier than the standard on my 2013
Pillion sits a little higher and gives them a better forward view as a bonus

Good choice.  Remember you have to remove the height adjustment bar at the front, just the bit held in by the rubber bands and the two plastic stepped blocks that the front seat sits on at its rear.
