Ken,I am 6'6", the stock seat doesnt allow me to slide back enough to get comfortable. i demo rode a cityX at daytona bike week and that seat fit me much better. I will take some pictures of it tomorrow and send them to you, its in perfect shape.

CityX seat is comfortable but easy to slip off of - gotta clench tight with the legs.

Id be willing to trade my CityX Seat for an XB9S Seat. Im not tall enough to use it.
I purchased a Corbin Gunfighter seat which works great for me solo, but the shape of the rear is not good for a passenger.

I have an '03 XB9S seat that I'd be willing to trade for a CityX seat. I just bought the bike a month ago, it has less than 800 miles on it.

email me if interested.

I just wanted to post up the results of Dan and my swap
For Dan, since he is tall, the CityX seat worked out great for him
For me, since I am short, the Stock XB9S seat worked out great for me.
I think the height difference feels like 2" due to the seat shape.

So for those who want to do it for these reasons, I say go for it
