I'm 5'9'' and do tend to end up toward the back of the seat. Might just be because my **** is skinny. haha.

Im 6' and not fat at all. On hard accel I dont feel planted in the seat. Really leaning towards the danny gray butt crack seat hopefully that will help or even the la pera bare bones.

Hmmm. When I end up in the back it's more because my body wants to go there, as opposed to the force of the ride. I feel pretty planted. But this is on the spring solo seat. Don't really remember being pushed back on the stock seat, but it's been a while since I had it on.

Good luck.

Well? Did you have a chance to give her some miles and see if you liked the seat? Thanks in advance.

Hey, thanks Terry. I got those off Ebay. You gotta be patient cuz some people try to charge like 400 bucks for them. I got mine for under 100 clams. They are actually a Harley part, but have been discontinued, so you have to wait for a new old stock set, or a used set that looks good.
