Can anyone help out , I have a 2014 EC300 I love the bike , but the seat is very hard kind of like a padded 2" X4" , does anyone have an recommendations for a new seat , seat foam, soft medium .

First, it takes awhile for the GG foam to break in. You have plenty of time on it? If so...Guts has a std seat foam that is much softer than stock. Have your dealer order one up direct, or you can get from Enduro Engineering. I think Budd Matto at Matto Cycles in PA does a seat foam and personalized cover that looks awesome.

The GG 15 seat is a big improvement over the 14, I like it but it's still firm.
Don't waste your money on the Guts std height soft foam after a couple rides your sitting on the seat pan. The Guts std height (not sure which compound I got med or hard) listed as ktm stock firmness works good. If you can ride with a tall seat(makes me ride like a spud)The Guts soft tall is comfy.

Thanks for all the info , I do have 30 hours on the present seat , so just to recap the EE seat is make by Guts and don't get the soft, get the medium it should similar to the standard KTM seat ,or if I can handle the extra 1" seat height get the soft tall . and hey Rod are you interested in selling your cover and standard foam?

I have the guts tall soft, its the best money I ever spent. The stock seat is instant recipe for monkey butt.

5' 11''. The front on the GG seat near the hump in the gas tank is very thin. The tall guts foam gives you just a little extra padding, the difference is height is barely noticeable.

Do not pass go and do not collect 200 dollars until you send your seat here:
http://fishersaddlebags.com/ Get the dual sport seat. Most comfortable seat I ever had on a dirt bike. Here is a picture of mine. It's an inch taller and as you can see wider at the butt.
