Hello all!
Just tried a interstate ride with my new low seat on a longer ride and after an hour of highway riding, OUCH! Very uncomfortable. I am now looking into the Corbin seat. I have a 700 mile trip coming up, and I not sure I am looking forward to it now...

Anyone else have this experience?

Note that this is the ONLY bad thing I have found with the bike. The bike has been great otherwise! I have just 625 miles on it.

Newbie Warning: New to Buell, New to Uly, New to Orange, and new to this forum.

I have done two 300+ mile days on my low seat. I didn't find it unbearable.

In less than two weeks, I getting on my Uly and riding to Daytona from central Massachusetts. It's 1200 miles each way. When I get back, I'll let you know what I think about the low seat.

Welcome aboard Chet. Smart decisions all the way around! Words of advise: watch out for the "Black Uly" riders; especially Lowflyer.

"1200 miles each way"

If your ass doesn't hurt after that, I'm buying one.

However, no matter what Slayer says, we don't want to see any before and after pics.

Odysseus : I found the same thing. For me, the stock seat was much more comfortable than the low.
