Man, I've messed up now!!! 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
I've been thinking about getting a Dragger "painfully low" seat. Well I messed up and rode the bike with no seat yesterday! LOVED IT!!! Now I've gotta come up with some "cash-ola" for the Dragger seat. Anybody want to donate to my new seat fund?

You could make your own from a blanket and some duct tape.

I'm still trying to figure out why he rode it without a seat to begin with.

You just know there's a story there dying to be told...

If I remember right on the Dragger website he tells you to take your seat of, fold a towel to set on to get an idea of where his seats will put you.

I rode it without a seat because I talked with the guy that makes them and he said that his seat adds no more than an inch of material above the battery and I wanted to get a feel for how the bike would ride/handle. I guess I should also say that I have 18" apehangers and I wanted to make sure I could reach them!!

Man, I'd love to try one of those, but I would hate to drop 325 just to find out I didn't like it. Tried the folded towel thing and a change of handlebars would be a necessity, for sure!
