will do on seat report. so far it is extremely comfortable. no six hour rides yet, but based on experience, i think it is an all day seat.
sorry about the wait for you.

ETA; I am 63 and have arthritis and it is still very comfortable. good back support, too.

I found a new wide vintage for under 300 (lucked out)
A few 4 hour days and my tail end is loving it.. had to buy some bags so the seat looked right (wide )( wide )

Yeah that's probably true, I seem to see less and less springers each year. I guess the younger crowd just doesn't understand the coolness of a springer

Struggling with handlebar ideas. I don't like apes, and my T-Bars just don't quite have enough reach. I'd like them back another inch or two. Any great ideas out there? In the past I've always done the wid1's bars.
