Absolutely right Ferret, that is one of the modifications i have done to mine, i did not want to elaborate too much and overwhelm him with info.
But my video lists the problems i personally found and how i changed the seat, in short the seating position with respect to the low standard 2013 seat is higher and further back, fine for riding 100km/h and relieving pressure on your arms but uncomfortable at slow speeds, it also depends on the length of the ride, i have the standard seat on for short rides and like it better for the position and control in town.

Corbin seats are perfect for me at 6 ft , I have the higher version.

I have read a good bit on here sbout seats. My plan was to send to Spencer w/a luimoto seat cover and let him do his thing. I just hate to take a chance on a $600 corbin or k&H and it not work for me. Aint like you can sell em. I remember several months ago someone had an all red corbin for sale on here for $200 I think. I might should have gotten it and recovered. I'll chrck w/the 2 upholstery shops I know of around here. Thanks fellas

I did order the taller Corbin seat and I did put 2 inch riser on my handle bars. I like sitting in a little more relaxed rearward position so I also installed some raked handlebars. All in all I can sit on the bike much longer. I am 6'2" and do not like hunching over for long rides.

Think I did not pay more than $400 or so for my seat. Very good customer service.

What risers did you choose? Thats coming for me, and crashbars w/pegs or frame mounted pegs.

No issue with length of cables?
