I've never tried the underseat kit, but I've never felt the seat got too hot on a properly running XB. An 1125 is a different beast, and those f*ckers can get hot enough to boil gas in the tank. The only time I had an XB do that was when the rear head temp sensor went out.
Also, Cooter swears by a little bit of 2 stroke oil in the gas to help cooling. I read the trials and tribulations (and heckling) of Gloomshadow when he tried it on his. He likes it too.
I tried it, and didnt notice a difference, but the Cooter thinks I had too much sauce in the gas.
