I bought the touring seat from Manchester Buell 3 weeks ago. They had one in stock , believe it or not ! It's much firmer than stock, which I wanted since my bike is set up for touring 2-up.I would say seat height is about 1 inch lower than stock. Mother Nature is finally cooperating so I hope to put some miles on & see how it settles in. I'm 5'10", 32" inseam for reference

I have the Sport Seat for the long. Much firmer then stock and great for quick rides and the twisties . I am not too sure about long distance yet. The rear may just get a little soar.

The sport seat feels taller then the stock seat as well. This was the main reason I got it. I am 6'1" and it provides a more comfortable seating position.

The touring seat makes mine look more like an s model with the contour of the seat.
