I don't know about buying a used seat from someone who goes by Stinkmeister.

holy cow those wings are extra hugemongous...

I'm a bit curious how large the guy was who had it made....

This is exactly what I thought when I saw those wings. That seat may have been fitted to a very big fella.

I saw this on eBay so I asked the Seller about his/her size: 5'-9" Tall.....190 Pounds.....30" Inseam

I've seen lots of Russell seats and some of them are pretty funky looking but this one takes the cake.

I'm afraid those "wings" could cause lift & instability of the motorcycle at triple digit speeds.

Ha ha, you guys. All Russells have wings like that though those do appear bigger than normal. I just got a great deal here on a Sargent seat set which I am very pleased with otherwise I'd be interested in trying that seat.

At 5'9, 190, this clearly wasn't made for the seller. Looks like leather, buts it's seriously fugly. I'm tempted, but I'll just sit and watch.

Been there, done that. Hated the RDL tho I tried hard to like it. Sold it. Way too tall, sitting on instead of in the bike. Would have had to spend $$$ for more riser plate(s) & windshield barn door to be comfortable. Wings prevented reaching the ground comfortably. If you're unsure don't waste your money.

I felt the same way with the RDL. I didn't lose any money on it though.

I would love to get a RDL for my present FJR, but will go a different route this time.

I loved my RDL for my 2004. If my RDL looked like the first post above, I never would have bought it.

For the people that dont want their Russell seat any taller than stock, they offer a "sport seat". You get the benefits of a russell seat but it is not any taller than stock.
