Thanks, but it was a new question.

I Installed the reduce reach conversion kit this past weekend. Feels much better with them back about 1.2". My right knee was kinda tweaked with them in the stock location.

It only took about an hour to install. I wasn't in a big hurry. Was worth the $$, but I haven't got any time on them yet due to a surgery. Wife rode the bike for about two hours and said they feel much more comfortable.

That's exactly what i mean..Strange..It's probably due to the dyna seat posture like the frame softail..? It's not a problem when i ride 1 hour but if it's more than that..Grrr
And i want to change my standart solo seat too for a bAd thinnest one..So..
