Yea comfort is for wussies. Why would anyone utilize new technology to be able to stay on the bike longer? I'm sure your new truck has trailing arms in the rear and drum brakes up front...

...because disc brakes are for wussies, right?

lol

I tell you what, I would pay good money for a cooled seat. My new GMC truck has them and they are awesome. Anything to keep the Monkey Butt away

The article says the surface temperature is lowered, and only about 10-15 degrees below ambient. The pictures show a standard unperforated seat surface. So no, you're not going to be feeling air blown through it. Not sure how much you'll feel it at all, being only a 10-15 degree reduction.

I'll have to check on those features on my GMC app, and see if I can also get to it via Onstar. I'm on the wifi now anyway, so...
DANG! MORE TECHNOLOGY!!

10-15 degrees is a pretty substantial difference. Studies have shown the human body can sense a temp difference in fractions of a degree. I'll ride when it's 45 degrees. I won't when it's 30-35 degrees. I personally would love to ride on a 75 degree seat when it's 85-90 degrees outside. I hope Corbin and other manufactures start making this available in a variety of styles.
