The seat is in excellent condition. Rode a couple hundred miles on it. Bike is garage kept and seat no longer on the bike. It is a very nice seat but with my height, 6'2", it doesn't work for me.

$270.00 shipped within US 48. Will check shipping costs for other areas. Money Order or Paypal accepted.

Thanks for looking.

Need cash for other accessories. Rather sell here than Ebay, feel free to haggle.....

I'm definitely interested, but I'm 6'0, so wondering what was uncomfortable about it? Does it push you forward more or something along those lines?

Michigunman · 09-04-2008, 10:05 AM

Yes the seat pushes you a bit forward. When I sit on the bike I feel pressure on my tail bone like I'm pushing myself in to the back of the seat if that makes sense. For me it is more comfortable than the stock seat on longer rides but the overall feel just isn't right. Forward Controls may help but I don't have them.

Hope that helps, let me know if any other questions.

Just saw your post...from the sounds of it, the seat would make me uncomfortable too. My tailbone is the issue already

That's a great price for the right person though!

I'm 6'2'' and I have forwards, do you think it would be better with that extra 3 1/2 inches? That is a GREAT price, and I'm seriously interested, could you post and close up pics of the seat?

Michigunman · 09-13-2008, 03:41 PM

I can't really say for sure on FC's, but it seems like it might help. I'll try and get some close ups later today.

Michigunman · 09-13-2008, 06:40 PM

OK, see if these help. I'll post most as a link so as not to make this thread a mile long. Let me know if there is something specific you are looking for that you don't see here. The seat is pretty much like new.

Here are some pics of me on the bike with both seats.

OK, I have two offers to buy so I'm calling this one SPF!
