How are you liking it? Did it move you back any?

I found the stock 2 up low rider seat is a little better than the stock low rider s single seat. I have since gone to the Hd tall boy seat and like it a lot. The tall boy seat lifts up and sets the rider back. I like the look of the 2up low rider seat but the tall boy seat is the answer for me as far as comfort goes. The seat in the above picture is the tall boy seat.

Just got this last night. Only put 6 miles on from the shop to my house so didn’t really get a full read on it yet. Can tell a couple things, the ergonomics suck so bars, risers, grips, seat are on their way. Second even like it sits though it’s better than all the Dynas, Sportsters, FXRs I’ve had in the past as far as power, brakes, suspension.



Gonna be a good boy and do the break in how they suggested and after that it’s on like Donkey Kong.

That looks tough. HPI said 3-4 mos back order on pipes lol, so now I gotta either get some random pipe I can get sooner or ride mine sounding like a Suzuki Boulevard through summer.
