$500 from wherever was way too much for me for a seat, so I used a couple of Dick's bleacher pads (black) at $5.99, kept in place by straps going on top and under the seat. But I own a KLR650 so that might explain the frugality.
Bar risers balanced everything out. Did some long riding with this setup, but also put on engine guards which gave me some room to install a $20 pair of hiway pegs--they looked fine and did the purpose. Didn't use the outstretched leg position much, but it felt great to have that option during long 10 hour+ days.
I'm 'bout 6'4" with 34" seam
