Anyone interested in my seamed tall seat? Who wants first dibs?

Leonardo,
Probably about 70 bucks total to get it to your door. It's all black and in good shape. Remember that I still have to get the new one before I part with this one. I ordered it last weekend to no telling when it will get to my dealer. He made it sound like no big deal but we shall see. Once I get my seat I'll need to try it out to make sure I'm in better shape than before. When I do get to the point of selling it I'll contact you and send some photo's of it. I traded a guy for a tall seat to replace my son's short seat and I shipped his Fedex and it cost either 20 or 30 bucks to ship it down to I think New Mexico? from Omaha. Shipping will not cost you extra as that will be included in the price of 70 bucks. Now we wait.

My new style tall seat came in today to dealer and it took less than a week. Have to go get it. Wish I had a teleporter.

I am getting from your message that there are two styles of tall seats?seamed and unseamed? what is the difference? do you have the part # for the unseamed.

the original 2006 seat was the tall seat. It had a seam that ran front to back along the sides and (I hear) it rubbed inside your leg.

In 2007 they switched the stock seat to a lower seat (that leans forward and you keep sliding into the tank).

If you buy the current high seat part number (at least when I did 18 months ago), it DOES NOT have the seam that rubs inside your leg.

Now there is also an accessory low seat that is lower then the stock 07-10 seat, but I know nothing about that one.

I like the 'original'! Only the Real McCoy for me! But I'm sure the knock off is good as well.

Replace a perfectly good seat to get rid of seams?

HTFU ; )

I have an 06 tall seat, it was not the seams that cause my rear to hurt, it was the hard edge near the seam. I had a custom upholsterer shave off the hard edge and replace the hard foam with a soft filler so the seat kept the same shape. No more butt burn on road trips. It was the best $75 I ever spent.

Pkforbes,
That's what she said.

Going on motorcycle trips is all about the fun and butt pain is a pain in the.

Did you sell the seat? I'll take it if you didn't. Shoot me an email and let me know.

Murf,
Two guys ahead of you on the list that also want it. I'm waiting until I have enough time in the new saddle to make sure I have no regrets.
