How tall are you? Are you comfortable in the factory saddle??

[Alberta Beagle]

I'm 6'1" 250lbs and find the seating position to be very comfortable. Can be feet flat easily with 33 inch inseam.
I have goe over 400kms at a stretch twice without getting off the bike without issue or discomfort. Don't see myself needing another seat in the near future.

6'4" tall but only a 32" inseam so i'm long torso.I also go about 375 lbs so I have a large frame and backside.I like the width and feel comfortable with the firmness of the stock seat.I would like to be back another inch or two to extend my legs out a little to the pegs.I came off a Roadstar with a Ultimate seat with backreat and I do miss the feel of a backrest that made me seat more upright.I'm on a long wieght loss quest as I have dropped 50lbs since the first of the year and have a goal to hit 250-260 in another year or so.I will see how I feel then and will look into another seat or backrest at that time.

I'm 6'2" and I am very comfortable on the factory seat. I installed Kuryakyn highway pegs when I first purchased my F6B and am very happy with them also. I just got back from a 4700 mile trip and I would have gladly kept right on going for another 4700 miles if I could have.

I am 6'4 and a 32" inseam. I feel comfortable on the bike. the only gripe I have is the 45* angle in the stock seat back. If it was rounded out a little to set back about an 1" or 2 it would be perfect.

I'm 6', 215 lbs. I find the bike very comfortable with a small help. I recently rode over 3,000 miles in 8 days, form SC all the way to VT and back, all two lane country roads (Americade). Had some rain, too. I'm comfy for about 200 miles, to last longer I use airhawk cushion. I've had it for probably 8 years, bought it for one of the cruisers I used to have but shape of it seems to fit F6B's saddle just fine. Airhawk may also raise me about an inch higher.

On the ride back, my friend (on 2012 GW) and I did about 550 miles one day and over 600 miles the next. We were able to make it back from Lake George NY to SC in only two days. We didn't ride too straight, either, lots of twisty roads along the way in VA and WV, and even did at least 70 miles on Blue Ridge Parkway. During all that time I was fine.

When I first test drove the F6B I thought it fit me better than my '07 GW. That's one of the reasons I bought it on the spot. I do like the new Rivco aeropegs and I have them on order. While at Americade I was able to try them on as Rivco had a 2012 GW with them installed. I found them comfortable. It would seem that on F6B the pegs would be even better as GW locks you in the seat and places you more forward than F6B. I am also watching how Corbin's solo seat with smugler trunk shapes up, I like the idea of it as I ride alone about 99.9% of the time.

at 6 ft an 33 inseam seat is best I ever rode with i put on the mini boards with heal toe shifter had the F6 for about a month an took 2 trips . I have a little over 4000 miles about four 400 mile days thinking about the ergo 3's like to stretch once un a while but no real problems so far

I have found this seat to be the most comfortable stock seat I have ever owned. I did add the Kury mimi boards to drop my feet position about an inch. Until I added them, I admit I felt a little cramped with the original pegs. Mini boards allow me to move my feet around and not stay in one position. I have black Ergo II highway pegs with mini arms being delivered tomorrow so I can see how comfortable those are. I am 6' but only have 31" inseam, tall torso.

I'm 5'7" with a 31" inseam and the seat was too flat for my bottom......I took it to Rich's Custom Seats in Kingston, WA and had it modified for me.............so much more comfortable than the stock setup. The stock seat was so uncomfortable I would have to get off the bike and rest my bottom after about 50 to 75 miles.

This seat is so much better and more comfortable........
