+1 Most def moved me forward and slightly down. Keep in mind I am comparing it to the C&C Sport Tour seat. I don't recall what the diff between stock and Sundowner was. Forward, I'd say 1" max and I got used to it quickly. I only use the Sundowner for long trips. I am not completely happy with being moved forward, but since the big trips are always 2-up, it works fine.

+1. Mine moved me down and a little back on my 06 SG. Have to echo Dusty's thoughts on the Sundowner / backrest combo. Has to be the best touring setup I've ever had. 600+ mile days are easy now.

I used to get butt burn also with the stock seat. Since, I rode 500+ in one sitting and still felt great. I think seats are unique to everyone.
Whadda ya mean "if my butt is a little wide"!!! Yeah, I'm about 235 lbs. But, I have a large frame
