Talking Deluxe Touring seat . . .

Anybody have or try one of these? Like it? It sure looks comfortable for the lower back but not sure if I like the look. What do you think of it? As always, thanks for the input.

I think it looks cool. Bethcha it's nice and comfy. I think it'd look good on your deluxe.

Thanks. After about two hours in the saddle, my back starts to bow out. Old age I guess LoL. This just might do the trick. I've not seen anybody with one yet so I'm real curious about these.

The wife has one on her Deluxe. She loves it. Says it is really comfortable, and moves her forward just right. I used to love to ride her bike, before she got this seat. But not any more. Now I sit way too far forward for my taste (I'm 5'11"). You might want to try before you buy.

Oh, I also forgot to mention that the nose on this seat is significantly skinnier, so I had to put heat sheilds on for her. But once I did that, she says she wouldn't want any other seat.

Thanks Coz. I'm 6' and the stock seat puts me just right so this may be a concern. Looks like it would be really low as well. Hmmm...
