Does anyone have this seat? If so, could you measure from the front to the top of the 'kicked-up' area?

I want to know how much further back I could sit as compared to the stock low seat.

Thank You. That makes it about a 1/2" difference from the stock low seat.....
I don't think that it would be enough of a difference.

If you're really wanting to move around and get further back on the seat you might want to look into a CityX seat. It doesn't have the "kick up" and is more motard inspired.

If you're just looking to stay close to stock shape and height but with the kick further back you might want to check out a Corbin. According to their site the Rider Seating: 11.5" wide x 13.5" long, Approx. seat height: 29.5".
Check the classifieds.

I found it very easy to move around on the Streetfighter seat. Much better than the stock seat and the Select seat that I now have.

that city cross seat isnt the easiest to get over to hang your knee out due to the height. it is, imo, the comfiest.
