Here we go, what are the thoughts on the different patterns available? I would like a brown plain seat but no-go it seems. Does comfort suffer with some patterns?

Diablo Custom Works is a K-Speed brand so their site shows the full selection of Diablo seats: https://k-speed.com/en/collections/seats/CT125
Unfortunately they do not do custom orders. I doubt the stitching makes much difference for comfort unless you're riding in the nude. What sets the aftermarket seats apart from stock in terms of comfort is the foam composition and shape under the cover. I have a no-name aftermarket seat that's been much more comfortable for me, I never notice the stitching or piping other than with my eyes.

The one I ordered had the bigger stitch pattern. Hope it doesn’t make a difference.

Should not be a problem! Very seldom ride nude (and so much of the general public is VERY happy with that!). thanks for the info. Probably will go with the brown.

Are you telling me that when I said I prefer naked motorcycles, that's NOT what you meant?!😂 (older motorcycle safety ad from Australia)

@Shoot870p if you are still looking for a plain brown seat without having one reupholstered locally, it is pricey but Mugello sell one:
They are out of Thailand. Communication may be difficult but they're reputable and I have bought custom Ducati parts from them over social media back before they had a website to buy through. The seats are made to order, so you could ask them to omit the tag if you don't want the seat to have it or would otherwise cut it off.

Subtotal
฿3,290.00 ($95.94)

Shipping
฿2,150.00 ($62.52)

Total:
฿5,440.00 ($158.19)

IIRC that's cheaper than the Diablo but not by much.

EDIT: I paid $128.99 for my Diablo seat. So the Diablo seat was cheaper.

those look great, too. I ended up with the Diablo. But sure would have looked into this one.
thanks for the info!
