Best Seat for Shorter Riders

[opas ride]

I sat on the stock seat and it didn't feel all that comfortable to me. I am 5'8", 165 pounds with 29 " seam. I like to ride with feet on the pegs and lean on a backrest. Which seat would you recommend? I am concerned that r placing the seat would result in pushing me too far back for the bars.

An option that currently gets good feed-back is having your stock seat re-done by Mean City Cycles in NC..I would have done my stock seat with them but they were not doing F6B seats at the time...They can move you lower, forward, backward, harder, softer, what ever your dimensions dictate..Great folks to deal with...Their info is on the Web and you can save a bundle of cash...Still may have them do my seat and sell the Mustang....

Thanks for all the quick replies, what about my concern about reaching the bars comfortably when you change the seat.

I can tell you that the Corbin that David K has pushes you forward. Don't know if they are all like that but his is.

[does the lowering kit works? How much is it?]

Simply put, yes it does, for about $400.00.

I just put a "Lowerwing" on mine and it's great! Quality is excellent and will lower your bike as advertised.If you have a centerstand you will want to replace it with his shorter stand.
