    Great informative video. I am in the market for a new seat and have tried Mustang and Corbin but both are not built to what I need. I’ve got a 1999 Road King so I will definitely check this seat out. Good job!

    Thanks for the review. Saved me some time and money. I'm looking with something with a higher, lower-back support. Currently using the stock backrest on my FLTRU. Looking now at the Saddleman Road Sofa.

    As you mentioned the seat does require a bit of a break in period. Once that break in is done it will typically relax about 1/4 of inch. Also remember you can try it before you buy it at any of our seat center locations. Thanks!

    I would definitely check out the asr by ciro. Adam Sandoval has put a lot of miles on Harley’s and designed the seat to keep the ride height as low as possible, while being super comfortable. Has a relief cut in for your tail bone, the sides are shaved down so your legs can get closer together to help with reaching the ground better. Watch his video on it.

Sounds like what your looking for anyway here is a link have a look www.thunder-max.com/Products/iRIDE.aspx can't hurt ok well good luck.

I'm taller than you but I'm not very big and the stock seat is way to wide and puts my legs at a strange angle when I put my feet down an I mean its a heavy bike..theres a stop sign at the very crest of a hill near my house that mergs onto another road into a Y and somthing about that angle, or the high difference between one leg and another because I'm on such a slant but I've almost duffed it twice right there. 🙋‍♂️ Prolly looked like a monkey fucking a football to everyone driving by the other way 🤦‍♂️🤔
