Default Pics?

Any chance of getting a pic of the above mentioned seat? I am looking for one of these, as the old lady keeps complaining about butt pain. I've put over 1,800 miles on my stock seat in the last 3 weeks, and hasn't bothered me....

Also, you say the seat doesn't fit you right? How so? I'm 6'1". Is it just a bad fit for someone our height? Thanks.

Here are a couple pics. Excuse the mess. I am restoring a Camaro for my daughter and an MG for me in the same garage next to the bike. My neighbor is 6"2' and that is why I picked up the seat because he likes his. I tried it for one day, I just could not get use to it because it is wider than the stock. It's not a bad thing, I just am use to the narrow seat. It was WAY more comfortable than the stock seat cushion wise.
