Which custom seat???

[doctorJ]

[SIZE=12pt]I did my first road trip today and quickly decided that a new seat will be my next addition to my 08' FJR. I am 6'-1" and 235 lb's. [/SIZE]The stock seat transfers all the thumps and bumbs right up into my tail bone The stock seat seems to be convex so that most of the support is on my tail bone....ouch

I have ordered a Corbin seat but I have second thoughts about how it will transfer the bumps.... I have looked at the Russell seats and they seen to look like they would suit a larger person.

I would like to have my weight evenly distributed over a wider area that the stock seat can provide and without the convex nature of the stock seat.

Please ring in with suggestions!

Thanks,

New FJR Owner,

Greg

I am similar dimensions to you. The Russell is by far the best seat I have ever had on a bike and I have tried a few. Here is a pic from my ride in appointment last June.

Even though I have never thought of a Russell seat as pretty, that is a very nice looking seat with the black cherry bike. You done good.

+1 on the Russell.

The group buy usually spins up around october or november with something like a december start date. Keep your eyes peeled for a thread that will post with more info when the time comes.
