Default Wide Tripper Forward Solo with Driver Backrest

Anyone here invested on this seat?

How is it working for you? Is it worth the investment?
Been thinking about it.

You better be REAL short to use the forward. I have a 30" inseam and it would be too close for me...

MT's are really good quality seats..

But tooo many in here complain they raise U up a couple inch's and also move U forward the same amount.

So If U have long legs and short arm's, there seat should be Perfect foR Ya.

Your Avatar picture shows a Vrod. Do you also have a Dyna to put this on?

I have this seat on my Dyna without the backrest...see sig pic.
Ironically, I am taller (6'1" with 34" inseam), and it is a comfortable position for me with my forward controls & mini floorboards. It sits me more in the bike.
I think how it's going to feel depends on the bike you are putting it on.

Yes, that's exactly where the seat is going to be installed.
