As far as height, I wanna say it stays the same or not enough that I noticed. It definitely keeps me from sliding side to side. It really grips.

 

Thanks!

 

Slightly related, but maybe slightly off-topic as well.
Anyone with the gold Lucky Daves on a low rider S and got some pics?
Was wondering if it looked tacky or super cool

 

Hope this helps

 

Looks like the gold thread is different shade to the wheels/badge? More yellowy?
Looks the goods, i was looking at the grey but the wife reckons to get the gold cause i'm too boring...

 

Getting the gold shade to match wouldn't be difficult, little bit of dirt would dull it down.

I'm planning gold thread on mine, it matches the bike a lot better. The wheels need a tiny bit of gold up top to balance out. (Ever seen an LR-S without the gold tank badge? The wheels look really out of place). The silver thread could match with the accents on the engine, but personally I think gold is the way to go and I'm the most exciting man I know.

With that being said, I love the red threading and if it matched with the bike it's what I would get above the gold.

 

BTW, if anyone else with a LR-S has swapped to this seat I would be interested in the difference in seating position. I'm quite happy with the stock seat, just need a passenger option and the Lucky Dave looks right at home on an LR-S.

 

running one on my LR-S, shifts you forward the smallest bit and definately higher.

I am 6'1 and I was tentative about moving forward any more but it feels great, puts you in a more aggressive riding position and the curve at the back holds you in tight.

That's good to hear.

After doing a long road trip I wouldn't have minded being back about 1" but 99% of my riding is more twisty and traffic dodging. I found with a slightly more forward lean I could make the bike react a whole lot better, but the stock seat isn't really set for that.

Come on tax return...

 

I'm a big fan of black and gold color schemes
