    They look good but about as practical as sitting on a brick

    I have a Bare Bones on my 84 FXST Short Chop and its fine for how I ride the bike. City/Day Trips.

    I've got a gel one for my softail but can still only tolerate it for an hour and a half tops. Maybe I need more padding on my arse. I changed over to a mustang and haven't looked back

    Has anyone tried HD's "tall boy" seat for Softail Std? My original seat is ok for an hour but my lower vertebrae and butt don't like long stints with the current set up. I'm 6'2 and prefer a bit more room to stretch the legs, and less pressure on my lower back.  I've already got 2" extended controls, but still not enough.
