Thanks for the kind words , it was great to meet you and get you a seat that was going to be perfect for you. As a shorter guy myself I understand there are instances where just a little modification makes a HUGE difference! How are those mid controls coming along??

I had a saddlemen explorer on a metric (vtx). Really fit the bike nice, was firmer like a corbin. Super comfortable after it broke in. Was on the bike for 20k untill i got rid of the bike.

I actually got the seat from American Ironhorse and could not be happier other than the mix up on the shipping, Seat is awesome.

I'm selling mine. Sits you up and forward and for me is good for about an hour. Which is typically how long I last on any seat that is not my hammock. It's a great looking seat. I thought I could get past the fact it raised me up. Nope. So I'll be listing in soon enough. Going with the CVO solo seat.
