Default Crossbones Seat is it bouncy?

Kicking around the idea of buying a Crossbones. Love the look of the stock sprung seat. But im 260 pounds easy. Do you get bounced all around on a spring seat?

that's a funny question. I had an 08 bones and the stock seat did NOT fit me at all. I actually used to slide off the front. I don't remember it being bouncy. I replaced it the first month I had the bike back in 08.....

It's not bouncy at all. I think it's the most comfortable HD seat I've sat on.

Love my bones sprung seat....I only replaced it with a WLA style...same shape, just thinner and holds you better than the stocker. I've ridden all day on this baby...
