Default Saddleman Heels Down Seat

Has anyone used the Saddleman Heels Down seat? I like what I see of it online but I would like to know what others think. Thanks.

Running one on my 07 LR for a year + now... Great seat, firm and comfortable with decent back support. Being a giant as I am at 5'4" this seat worked out great. Exactly what I needed.

Thanks guys. Being a giant myself at 5'3" with a 27ž inseam, I'm looking for all the help I can get. Haven't decided on what lowering procedure to go with yet though.

I have been looking at that seat for my new Wide Glide. My last bike had a Saddlemen solo seat on it and I loved it! The Wide Glide will sit lower so I am looking mostly to move me forward a little, as the forward controls are pretty far forward for me.

not many options for the switchback, you have to try seats and bars
or shocks and fork springs...
if you were closer i would let you sit on mine as the 12" street glide air shocks also lowered me about .5"...
