I cant help but think this would "snap" right into place... I know they sell a 2-up seat for the TT... but the Lightning Long Touring seat would appear to lower the seat height just a bit... which is EXACTLY what I need to do...

Anyone done this ????

Wait.. im still trying to find out if anyone actually even owns a Super TT ???

It does "snap" right in to place. The TT will take any Lightning Long seat.

does the SS seat get your feet any closer to the ground ?

No, the seat height is almost the same...

147db, Is the SS seat the same as the two up seat for the TT? Also I see that you have a XB9SX on your web site so I am assumming that you have ridden both. If given a choice would you prefer riding the City-X or the TT. Is the suspension on the TT ALOT more or hardly noticeable.

Hi Tankhead, the answer to your first question is yes. I still prefer the 984 engine, it is so smooth... the 1203 is not so enjoyable (from 1000-7500 useful XB9's RPM to 3000-6750) but has a good amount of torque. But about the whole bike (suspensions, frame, rake, ground clearance and wheelbase) the STT is really unattainable!
