tall cozy seat pics

I took a good 2 hour ride this morning. Thought I would give my thoughts on the tall cozy seat. It does sit a little higher. I am 5'10" with a 32" inseam. On the stock seat at a standstill, I could put both feet flat on the ground with ease. With the cozy seat, my feet are raised on the ball of my feet with heels not touching ground. Some of that has to do with the extra width in the seat. My knees are not bent as far, but it is a slight but noticable difference. The seat does not have a steep step in center, which does allow for easier sliding back to change positions. The seat is firmer also allowing easier position changes to keep butt from getting hot spots.

The stock seat was too soft for me. I felt like I was glued to one position, unable to slide forward or back without standing up enough to lift butt completely off seat to change positions. The cozy allows you to slide forward or back without having to raise butt off of seat. The cozy does have a little upward angle from front of seat to rear. I thought it would cause me to slide forward into tank, but it is barely noticeable. Overall I like the seat. The k and h seat may be a little more comfortable, I dont know as I have never tried one, but for the difference in price, I am very satisfied with the cozy. The cozy looks more authentic retro to me than the k and h.

The next question is -chrome strip on tank or not ?
