Crusing comfortable

[toadstool]

I had a custom touring saddle made last year for some added comfort when taking the long trips. The passenger pad was designed to accept a driver back rest, although the designer was reluctant to do so due to the possibility of the suction cups popping off without the weight of a passenger. I found a solution; modify the hardware on the Saddleman 2200 so it fits snugly facing forward while placing the needed downward pressure to hold the passenger pad in place. I look forward to this next trip because a test ride around town was like sitting in a lazy boy.

Jesse, that is a big seat but it probably is "long-haul" comfortable, is that a Russell "Day-Long" seat?

Sure is. And yes it is bigger than stock, but when crusing 500+ miles in one day, stock just didn't cut it.

Thanks for the response, I looked into one of their seats for my Yamaha FJR1300 for long ride comfort. Hope that it works out to be as comfortable as they promise.

Definitely looks comfy for those long hauls!

Good back support and tail-bone cushion are what I've found I need the most after a couple hundred miles on the K9.

Looks like your set-up 's got that covered!:up:

Not my cup of tea, but thanks for sharing!

There is no way I could ride my seat 500 miles in a day, but that seat looks like it would do great.
