    Thanks for the feedback, guys. This only solidifies my plan to get that RDL this winter. Having some lower back pains on my Indian I got rid of, and just some slight stuff on the F6b, comfort is the main thing for me. First ride on it was 400 miles and was pretty good, but I know that RDL comfort as I had one on my police bike, ridiculously good. Going to have to get this all figured out and under way.

    My RDL is very comfortable but they did put the back rest too far back.

    Rick,
    Mine was a little too far back too so I installed the smallest bead rider I could find and it worked out perfectly. Also it is useful for another thing and that is keeping air circulating around your back like it does when put on the seat. You never have to lean forward on a long ride due to sweat on your back.

    That is a good idea, thanks for the suggestion, I'll start looking for one.

    Forget SC and Nevada, the day after the case is over I'll be on this board looking for another one and doing another cross country, I'll swing South to hook up and then we'll head out to BIGLRY's and there's a gal at the G Spot Bar and Grill in Carlsbad I haven't seen in 3 years I'd like to say Hi to, again.
