Just got a barely used Sargent seat (low version) and was surprised that I can only tip-toe while parking my bike. I guess the wider girth reduces my leg reach. The DP comfort seat felt lower.
Oh ok, I should be fine then. I think you should stick to the sargent. What color is it?I'm 5'9 ~ 5'10
Yea but even with the stock seat it is tricky. Gotta place them just right to swipe them in.i'm 5"11 and have the sargent standard and even though it's taller than stock i have no problems..also you have to make sure it's seated into the allen dome bolts on the sides of the tank which you can adjust to get a nice fit and lined up with the tank fairings
Yeah I'm having a tough time getting the catch bolts to fully engage in the receiver slots. Only one side of the catch bolt head seems to catch.i'm 5"11 and have the sargent standard and even though it's taller than stock i have no problems..also you have to make sure it's seated into the allen dome bolts on the sides of the tank which you can adjust to get a nice fit and lined up with the tank fairings
i took an exacto knife and trimmed the upholstery a little where it tucks around the slots so it was easier to slip it on the studs but you still have to make sure they engage properlyYeah I'm having a tough time getting the catch bolts to fully engage in the receiver slots.

I guess the plastic receiver slots have seen better days on this seat.
