Jim Moore (jmoore on the Forum) in Whitney, NE, has had a Top Sellerie saddle on his NT for a long time, maybe 10 years. He's been very happy with it.
I've had Russell saddles on my prior-to-the NT Kawasaki Concours C10s and on my original NT. They were all the Day-Long Heavy Duty. Russell Day-Longs have a transverse steel spring under the rider's buttocks and the Heavy-Duty is for people who weigh over 235 pounds. By the time I bought my 2nd NT in 2020, I was down to 210 pounds from 295 in '18. I replaced the Day-Long HD with Russell's Sport Saddle. The Sport Saddle eliminates the spring and reduces the saddle's height about an inch and a half. Russell says that after the Sport settles in (roughly 500 miles), it's slightly lower than the stock NT saddle. It's been very comfortable for me. If only I could get back to riding....
