I was thinking of this seat for my Road King. How do you find you're riding position compared to stock. I really like the looks of it.

I do like this seat a lot, although I do wish DG would either add another set of bladders further back, or just move the entire row back on the seat. I’d benefit more with it by the tailbone area than I do with it by the nads. I’m not complaining because I got a good deal for it used on here. Had I spec’ed it out and ordered it directly from DM, I probably could have alleviated that bladder location thing. But it’s all working so no complaints here. Compared to stock this seat drops me down and back beyond stock just enough to make a positive difference for me. I’m only 5’10” but I like a further back seating position. Problem is I tend to hunch or hunker into a tucked riding position to get low and it was wreaking havoc on my tailbone with the stock seat and handlebars. Adding this seat, in combination with my KST Renegade handlebars, has fixed that because now I’m legitimately sitting lower and further back without having to hunch, but at the same time I’m forced to adjust my posture to be more upright in order to reach the new handlebars. So I’m sitting where I want without the hunching and resulting tailbone pain.
