got the bike back this morning hauled azz home to put the new mustang seat. it looks great!
but sitting on it, WOW, does this sit high. i went up about a good 2-3 inches. forward about an inch. going forward an inch doesnt bother me but the going up about 2-3 inches. i feel like i am "on top" of the bike compared tobeing in the bike. i understand that it will take some time to "soften" and hopefully lower down some. anybody else experiance this problem.
Fullsacs will be here monday, will let you know how that works out
Had the same feeling when I put the Mustang on my RK. Wasn't sure I'd like it at first, but it didn't take long and you couldn't get me to change out seats again. The seat with the rider backrest is way comfy. Just give it some time...
I just put a new Mustang Seat on my Ultra about 2 hours ago. I bought the Ultra Regal so I could keep my same backrest. I agree it does sit higher but it seems just perfect for me. I'm 6' 2" and around 225 and I am really liking the seat. Now I hope Mama does.
I just put my new Mustand Ultra Regal on the RG. I also got it to match the riders/passenger/tour pack backrests. It does sit me up higher, but it's a heck of a lot better than the old seat. After a little while on the old seat, it felt like I was sitting on the backbone and not the seat. This is going to be much more comfy...
