Lower seats

[BadDawg]

Are you saying you really can't lean back on the seat? The contour of the seat makes it appear that way. And it looks like they have a newer seat although the dimensions are the same.

MountianDew, the back support barley reaches the small of my back . However, i've done extremely long trips on mine. What I have found for me is posture. If I just slump on to the bike I will start feeling it in a few hundred miles. What I figured out on my last trip. If I get on the bike and lean forward then slide by butt back against the seat and sit up straight I'm good for well over a 1,000 miles.

Thanks. I'm just under 5'10 with a 32'' inseam and I really want to get both feet flat on the ground. This seat looks to do the job but I want to make sure the support is there.

I am 5'9'' with 29" inseam and the Mustang seat works great for me with the 1" lower seating position...If you don't want to spend a bunch of dollars and would like a real quality seat..Contact Allen at Mean City Cycles (on the web) and they will custom build your stock seat the exact way you want...I will probably use them next time I need a different seat as they do great work for the money.....Regards and ride safe....

I spoke with mean city Monday and learned that they cannot move you back in the seat but they can lower it. I for one would love to move back a couple of inches +/- but the woman I talked to said it doesn't work due to the seat pan.
