    Voted "Other". I have a Rick Mayer and am 100% satisfied. Total comfort. No matter how long the ride, seat comfort is never a limiting factor.

    Stoke seat, but ordered the Mustang, thanks to the great customer service from Teresa and Rick at Value Accessories.
    I will keep you posted on this one, just after mid-June.

    Currently Stock but have been researching aftermarket seats. Likely going to try the Mustang but stuck trying between the plain vs the tuck and roll. I'm short and could really benefit from the lowered seat height.

    RDL,,, very similar to Rick Mayer
    Previous bikes,,, Sprinkled in some Mustangs and Ultimate's along the way before the RDL's.
    Went straight to RDL w/the 6.
    Done.

    I really do not understand why you would want a tractor seat, on a motorcycle made for twisty roads. The Granny Chair Wing seats inhibit movement to shift ones weight in a curve. The flat seat on my F6B is just fine for crooked roads. I guess a butt hugger seat is ok for the long straight roads of Mid America and Florida. Just saying.

    If I can't fix it, I will fix it so no one can fix it.

    Yup, Just not that many crooked roads here in TX. Got several with 80 and 85 mph speed limits, but dem crooked ones are hard to come by!!!

    And besides,,,,,, less counter-steer/seat squirmin needed when ya don't use one of dem Abby-normal rear tires!

    I can speak only for the Rick Mayer and find that it is in no way confining in the twisties. Check out his website on that issue. Shows his seat on a Beemer at a track day. Have you tried one of these "tractor" seats? If not, you might also want to check out a quote from a fellow named Herbert Spencer. He mentions the pitfalls of "contempt prior to investigation".
