that's why my Baghira seat was off to the custom shop 30 minutes after I got the bike home. I haven't had a bike without a custom/aftermarket seat in about 20 years, all stock seats suck.

notice my Rich's seat is built up on the nose, levels the seat out and I probably gained some legroom. Turns the Baggi into the most comfortable bike I've ever had, really..

I'm in SC and can't ride to WA to have a seat done (Travel would cost way more than the seat!!) but that seat is amazing.

I'm going to use it as a model for my own seat. I really want a wider, more cruiser cushion to the back (I'm 6'5" and 320lbs) and a taller front would help keep me from sliding forward during hard braking which can sometimes cause the back to get a little squirmy.

Why pay for custom fitting that isn't custom?
