The parts fiche shows that the SE comes with 53066-0592 (high seat in black/gray) for the front and 53066-0593 (standard seat in black/gray) for the rear. It looks like we have the "high" seat by name, but the 99994-1068 (comfort seat with double stitch) says it is 33", which is taller than the OEM specs for the SE model at 32". I may jump in and get the Comfort seat also.

No matter what the parts fiche says, I believe that the SE model is coming stock with the 99994-1068 higher double-stitched Comfort SE Seat. Both it and the 99994-1067 Comfort Seat show to be a 33" seat height so I'm not sure what the difference is other than the fancy stitching. Maybe the 53066-0593 Standard Seat is the one that is 32" and it might be the stock seat on the base model.

We shall see. Mine will be here on Wednesday, and I will give it back to them if it is the same.

The part numbers above, -0592 and -0593, are what I have on my SE.

Do they have the 2 rows of stitching and the micro-suede sides?

Yes.
Then I believe that you have the 99994-1068 drivers seat. Why do you think you have the 53066-0592?

Because, rather than speculating, Thunderdawg had the good sense to actually remove his seats and look. I did the same and found numbers 0592 & 0593 clearly marked on the bottom of the seats of my H2 SX SE. This is in line with what 57x said earlier.

It will be interesting to see what the difference is between the 53066-0592 and 99994-1068. The Kawasaki website states that the 99994-1068 is standard equipment on some SX models and the pictures of the SE model show this double-stitched, suede-sided seat.

I can't check the number on my driver's seat since I sent it off to Sargent, but there are 2 numbers on my passenger seat, 53066-0593 and 53066-0598. This makes me wonder if that is the part number for the pan that is used on all of the various seat styles. Yes, just speculating.

I just got my comfort SE seat in today. Its the exact same seat. It has different numbers on it but exactly the same thickness in padding. New one is a little harder but that just because its not broken in yet.

This is going back.
