Knowing the height lets me know if they need to move back or forward and again a lot of this is all tied in with what the customer wants and request.
Any problems doing a seat that has to be shipped back to Canada?

Rush performance has a seat with a cut out for the tail bone, and prostate.

I too am 6ft. 290lb. and us big goys need a big seat. Air Zeppelin is the way to go (in my opinion). Large wide seat and adjustable bladders to move the pressure points around and can be done while riding.

My question to both of you guys with the air zepplin is, do you have tailbone damage?
Not trying to be difficult, but lots of folks talking about comfortable seats. I have a serious pain issue with my tailbone. Not after two hours riding, from just sitting on a firm surface for a few minutes.

I think you quoted the wrong post, I do not have an air zepplin.

I do not have any tailbone damage either, so can't say for certain that an airhawk will work, but it certainly made my ride much more enjoyable

You're right. Sorry about that. Same question though. Does the airhawk help folks with sore tailbones? Do you have a sore tailbone?

Default Same problem

I had the same issue with my tailbone. Put a Mustang on the Fat Boy 2 years ago and it helped considerably
