new seat help
I'm looking around for a new seat and I was curious. I wouldnt mind having a little more room to stretch out, especially once I get a windscreen. What kind of room do you find since you guys have installed a new seat? I understand most comfortable seats like the sundowner lift you up a bit, but what about moving you back?
I am comfortable riding, but after putting a few hundred miles on the freeway I wouldnt mind having the controls about an inch or so further away.
How has getting a nice comfortable seat effected your riding position?

I've had LePera's Sorrento seat on my 1200C for about 1500 miles and I love it. Less pading but better quality. A bit pricey, but the design flows with the bike much better. The wife says the back seat is a big improvement. Much more pading back there without looking like a sofa cushion.

RE: new seat help
I have the Sundowner and can definitely notice it pushing me forward but with the difference in comfort, you won't find me complaining.

RE: new seat help
Hub just put my new Mustang wide solo seat on my 883 low. It does set me up higher cause when I sat on the bike I looked over the windshield instead of thru it. Hope to get a chance to ride tomorrow and see how I like the seat. Sure is A LOT more comfy than the stock rock!!
