Big T,

You should have gone with the "Tall Boy" seat.  It only raises you an inch over the stock SERG seat but it puts you two inches or so back from the sundowner...you get to stretch out.  It also has as much padding as the sundowner has for the BSR so they'll be happy.  

We just got back from a 2K trip to Key West and did 13 hours in the saddle the last day.  We were tired and had a minor case of "monkey-butt" but it was very minor considering.

 

Nice garage setup!!   :bananarock:

Thanks,  My wife told me when we were living overseas "you're not keeping any of your stuff in my garage when we buy a new house". 

So we worked a 24 X 24 all brick garagemahal into the deal when we bought this place when it was about 90% complete.  It only cost me $14K and it's the primary home for my 61 bubble top Bel Air & shop.

Thanks for the detail DW, it's good to hear it from someone that has industry experience instead of just opinions for once.   ;D
my azz has an opinion, HD seats suck, first of all they are vinyl. why they give you leather dressing is beyond me. so you sweat and chafe with them. get a good breathable leather.
Actually I've had Corbins that took 1000 miles and a few where good to go out of the box. Tank to tank, best buy.

I need to give Wille G a call.  What was he thinking with all the vinyl seats?  I assume the CVO seats are leather, especially since they come with those little "leather" tags. 

There should be a way to click on the responder's name to see pics of their bike.  What seat are you running again LarryB?

I took a good close look at my Stock CVO seat and the buffalo, or beefalo, or whatever it is sure don't look to be real. We got buffalo'd.
