Default Seat selection(saddlemen step up)

So, I had a mustang wide tripper on my ‘10 fltrx. Great seat but with a 120R I felt i was needing to hang on lol. Wanted some lumbar support and was leaning towards the step up. Then the Lepera kickflip came out and it looked awesome. As the step up was so popular, and me wanting to be a bit different, i decided to try it.

Well, great looking seat and fairly comfy too, only downfall was it weights about 15lbs and the passenger pad is bigger than it looks online. With the lumbar support it put me further up than i wanted. And, it makes my luggage rack unusable.

Can anyone comment(with a good side pic) of their step up(or anything somewhat comparable)on a touring bike.

I went with Lucky Daves for my '19 RG, rumor has it that it's made by Saddlemens but Lucky Daves just modifies it a bit. The passenger pillon is a bit more narrow.

Beautiful seat. Had one on my dyna but it set me up too close to bars. They didnt/dont make a daddy long legs version. Plus their customer service is brutal IMO

Thats what i got on the bike now. Ordered it b4 they had the long legs version. Thing looks a bit on the large side plus it literally weights like 20 lbs.

got myself an SDC version of the step up. ****in thing is ridiculously comfy and light AF. Its on saddlemens website fyi
