FUGLY Tractor Seat RR and Update....
I've now got about 3K (mi) on it now (the rear seat however has been on as stock, as it is more flat and holds/straps-on my cooler better).
Positives
Def has loooooooong distance comfort!. No squiggling around trying to find comfort after a few several hundred.
You totally forget about 'sore butt concerns'. Totally out of the equation.
572mi was my longest 1-day run so far. Could of kept going, no problem but I was at my destination.
Pluses all the way around
Now the negatives
- I use to be able to flat foot the K16, no problem. Not anymore.
- If you have a bag (or something) strapped to your rear seat... hooking your leg up n over (to mount the bike) becomes a BIG chore. It's a left leg swivel-twist and right leg up-kick and over. Getting better at it, but I'm 6-4, I can't image a smaller guy doing this.
- The looks. Not sporty at all, but I still have the OEM seat for this, so no bitching anymore about the fugglyness of the seat
Overall, I'm very happy-happy. It's only on for my bike for the long distance stuff. For that situation, and, what it is intended for, my grade has to be a A- (the minus is only cuz I prefer it not as a permanent fixture).
RDL- Only cuddos to them, great build quality and the seat does exactly what it is supposed to do... provide day long comfort.
