I have this seat on my 15 RGS. I've done many all day interstate rides and it is a fine seat for a full day. By the end of the day the foam does pack down so it becomes painful. On subsequent days, the foam packs down in about an hour so frequent stops are needed.

It's the same seat as is the subject of this thread, only with different stitching.

Do you know what that part number is for the Passenger Pinion pad that matches?

I use the solo LePera Bare Bone with backrest. I have no issues even after 4-5 hours of riding.

I started using a Danny Gray Buttcrack for around town but even riding for a couple of hours has been pretty comfortable and I like the way the bike handles quite a bit over the stock seat. The Buttcrack can be had for

Can someone tell me is low-profile touring seat suitable for small/short legged people like myself? Im 5'8 (173cm), and right now Im riding a DG speedcradle which makes me flat-footed and puts me in a good control of my bike but its killing me after long rides. Used to have Mustang Vintage solo but its too high for me. I know there are alot of options, but I really dig the look of brown diamond stitch version...
