Default Installed the spring seat

Put this new seat on last night, I left the upper spring bolts out so I can lift the back of the seat up.

Luv it so far..

Thats a nice seat. The cost has always kept me from adding that though.

I love the look of mine. I must say that it gets a bit hard on longer rides, but I'm getting used to it. I do like that it sits a bit higher than the stock seat as the new position has relieved my shoulder pain a lot.

Regards,
Michael

What seat are you replacing? It looks like it sets you a bit forward than a stock seat, is that right?

I am looking to put a spring seat on my lowrider, and wondering how it changes your position.

thanks

How do you like it? I'm getting ready to mount a new fender to the swingarm and am debating going to this or a solid mounted seat like this.
