#141285 jim0626 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 67 AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   So...I put new metzler's on the bike and I find they have a lot more height. I'm short so I dialed down the rear shock and still find it tall. I want to get a new seat for comfort reasons but also it may help lower me on the bike. Which is the best choice in optional seats?   Logged     A bad day riding is better than a good day at work   The administrator has disabled public write access. #141287 HoustonCH73 (User) fists to the wind... Expert Boarder Posts: 587 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   oh man what a question. corbin, mustang and ultimate are the most popular. corbin definitely gets you "in" the bike. they'll all lower you down though.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #141292 fireman922 (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 228 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   I put on a PCS seat, and it lowered me about 1.5 inches. http://www.pacificcoaststar.com/pcs/road_star_original_seat.htm It's not an Ultimate, but it's cheap.

The Ultimate is nice a little more cushy and the Corbin is a more fit type seat. All will lower you on the scoot some, due to the frame shape as you go lower it will move you forward. Lot's of choices and in my opinion all customs are better than the stock seat. The Mustang makes 500 mile ride easy and the stocker was killing me after 200. Good luck.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #141559 retrdff9390 (User) It is what it is Senior Boarder Posts: 220 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   I also have the Mustang. I like that it sit me a little lower and it does push u a little forward, but for me not that much.   Logged     No, its not a Harley. http://www.nopork.com/mybike_detail_view.asp?name=pops405&src=MYB203 blue   The administrator has disabled public write access. #141616 rstarny (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 154 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   Stock is not great, i had a mustang touring with a drivers back rest fair and i does push you forward and butt still got sore in less than 200 miles. Went to a corbin awesome 600 miles in a day, butt was a little sore but 600 miles not bad and does sit you right down in the bike. I have also tried a looney bar hop only but the lowest of all. corbin for me i have 3 of them now different colors   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #141718 erizo (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 652 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   i´m still looking for a slimmer saddle along the lines of a corbin gunfighter, but to no avail. i don´t want something like a looney, as it´s too low and shifts the riding position too far forward and i´d lose what i gained in legroom with the floorboard extensions.   Logged     be realistic - demand the impossible!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #141724 eirinn99 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 155 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   hey Erizo, what about the hollywood? http://www.corbin.com/yamaha/rdstarhw.shtml It is sold also as a yami's aftermarket seat, but with a lower price It is the one mounted on my wildstar   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/11/25 07:27 By eirinn99.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #142762 jim0626 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 67 Re:AFTERMARKET SEATS? 1 Month, 1 Week ago   So I deicided to try something...I removed the original seat cover and useing a electric knife I carved the UNDERSIDE of the foam to suit my butt..Then re-installed the cover, and it lowered me by 1.5 in and I sit in the seat instead of on it...Best part is the seat looks un-touched because of carving the underside..
