hmmmm........ interesting. Compared to the stock seat does it put you forward more, back more, the same? Looks nice flows well with the bike.

Sit in the same spot as stock but lower, padding is awesome and you don't slip around.

I like that seat alot! It's difficult to find a seat like that, that actually flows well with more modern bikes. And if you think it's comfortable that makes it even cooler!

Barry.... I have one question: Does the seat keep you from sliding backwards when you accelerate hard?
That is one fine lookin' seat on the sporty!

No you won't slide back, it's like you sink in to the seat, but not too soft. He offers different styles, stitching and gel inserts. The bottom of the seat is covered in heavy upholstery type felt. He even does custom stitching. I'm telling you it was a find to get a comfortable low profile seat for this price!
