Author Message   Signguy Posted on Thursday, July 15, 2004 - 12:18 pm:        Looks like its got more cushion.   Jasonblue Posted on Thursday, July 15, 2004 - 12:43 pm:        Its definatly flat across the top like a dirt bike. Probably gonna increase the seat height a bit.   Wyckedflesh Posted on Thursday, July 15, 2004 - 02:42 pm:        If it gives me a longer ride distance so be it to me.   Signguy Posted on Thursday, July 15, 2004 - 03:05 pm:        Does the XB9SX have a lower suspension? The seat height on Buell.com says 30.1", which is the same as the XB12S. The XB12Scg is listed as having a 28.6" seat height.   Reepicheep Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 10:16 am:        It could squash down to the same position when you sit on it, but with more padding and comfort under you. Dunno.   Signguy Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 11:54 am:        Guess we'll have to wait until a dealer gets one in.   Anonymous Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 12:13 pm:        the XB9SX seat is a direct drop-in fit for other XB lightnings...   Daves Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 12:30 pm:        Cool, thanks Anon. Could you email me a part number for it? daves@h-dappleton.com   Signguy Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 12:32 pm:        Dave - When you get the part number can you get me the price and availability?   Daves Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 02:11 pm:        Just got it! seat retails for 98.95 Badweb price 89.06 Dave 1-866-757-1651 daves@h-dappleton.com   Mrh Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 05:24 pm:        Dave, you've got mail...   Aa5ch Posted on Friday, July 16, 2004 - 07:15 pm:        A related question.... The specs show the XB9SX seat height to be 30.1 inches...the same as the the XB12S. According to the specs, the ground clearance for both bikes is the same, but the XB9SX's seat as shown is taller and is surely higher? One of my complaints with the XB seats is that they force you into a more or less fixed riding position...looks like the City's seat may allow for a little movement?
