how about a side picture that shows were that sundowner sits the rider, and how do you like it for comfort. since the changes, first thing I removed was the apes and replaced them with roadglide bars

hmm,dont think i have a side shot..ill try after work tomorro,sorry..i cant believe the differance from stock seat..love it..it does set you a tad higher..but i wanted that with the footboards..im 6' 2", didnt wanna sit down in the bike..harley seems obsessed with low seat height,i guess to appeal to the masses?..look at any old photo of a dude ridin a 40-50's or even a 65 panhead...you sit above the tank..not under it
