sorry, second gen. the current ones are 3rd gen.
The second gen seats where the best, the most rigid, most supportive, softer padding. But I crashed into a solid wall and broke mine
The cat love sitting in it now.
they sold the second gen seats for 450 or something, so they have gone cheaper materials for the 3rd gen current ones at 150-200.
they are still good value, I have two. So they can't be too bad, comfy on long trips and work well for track work.
