I agree with what others said about the stock seat, and asthe cornering, I had my bike lowered in the rear and was told that will help in the corners.
Hey Crazy Biker, wot's that luggage you have there, looks like it's taylor made to fit over the sissy bar? What is its capacity? Looks cool.
It's an overnight bag 17" wide 10" deep 12" tall. Part# 98873-00

The longer I have mine the better I lilke it. Handles well solo and two up. The seat is amazingly comfy and have never been sore on longer trips.

I love the ride and I even have the retro seat on the bike. THe retro seats really puts you into the bike. Anyway, I have a friend that is a Honda rider, owns four of them. I left my bike in the garage one night and he had a fit. However while I was out of town he took it for a ride and he admitted to me that he was shock and that it was a great ride.

OK Crazy Biker thanks for that. I've just got my Softail Custom and am thinking about luggage.
