The spring seat i added is an inexpensive budget version. The padding is minimal and the seat area is fairly small. Shape is good for my smaller size. I have 3 seats now, the original is by far the best for full tank stretches and all day riding, but the spring seat does absorb sharp edged hits nicely. It works good for around town and my addition was totally for the looks. I will be leaving it on even for longer rides.

Shortened the kick stand,changed the primary fluid and adjusted chain,put a chrome stabilizer link on,used 3m polishing compound on the tank,rubbed to a brilliant shine,then waxed.brightened the aluminum back up.rode it on the back roads enjoying the fall air and watching the leaves fall....in the course of about 2 weeks while putting on another 500 miles on bike....on a side note for those that are lowered and have a peg scraping problem in the curves,get the mini floor boards.they are thin towards the out side allowing for all the lean u need... EDIT..and changed plug wires to yellow.was getting a weak spark on the rear plug and thats what it was.

I really liked the Sundowner on my '07. When riding 300+ mile days it was worth its weight in gold.
I recently ran across a couple at a McDonalds in Kettleman City, Ca. that was riding 2 up on a sporty with a saddleman seat. They were riding from Hisperia, Ca to Yosemite CA. Thats over 340 miles, 2 up, and they were older than me, I think, and had not one complaint.
