Sent a PM a4pumper...as others are saying...this is one heck of a seat. Best money I've spent on the bike. Pics attached.

I have the G2 on my bike. I forget who but someone here did a good comparison on the difference between the stock and G2.

I'm about 6'2 and had pretty bad neck and shoulder pain with the stock set up. I put on the Baron's and that helped a bit like you noticed. I did the Flanders bar and kept the risers on...big difference. Took a little getting used to cause it was pretty much a whole new position with my arms and shoulders but I can ride all day now without any pain so for me it was well worth it. I also changed out the seat around the same time and that may have been a factor too. My arms don't extend nearly as much as before and are much closer in at the shoulder and elbow. It almost felt cramped at first but I'm not scrunching my neck and shoulders like I used to. I could get relief with the stock by stretching like you mentioned but that was only temporary. Hope you find a solution that works. I was getting pretty bummed at how quickly I was getting discomfort on the bike. Before I could only go a few hours before my shoulders and neck started tightening up. Just after I made the full change I did about 675 miles, 12 or so hours, in a day and could have kept going. Felt like a new bike and was well worth the money spent. Good luck!

My seat pics from another thread. Best investment I've made on the bike...by far. Not sure why but I never could get comfortable on the stock seat. With the Russell seat I swear I sometimes forget that it's there. Always was aware of the pillow top.

I'll second the Day Long...wasn't cheap but easily the best upgrade I've done to the bike. Great folks to do business with.

Any Nashville or Townsend Tennessee get togethers?

I will want to make that for sure. We can probably get a group to go over when the time comes. -
Good luck...remember to watch the hands!

Jennay...like Forrest Gump was saying it.

Mine disengages with the brake but not with the throttle. I thought it was disengaging off the throttle but I had never really let it come back to speed without fiddling with it. If I let off the throttle steadily it always seems to keep me at the speed I had set. Is your amber light coming on after you hit the throttle?

thanks for the pics!

Same here skid, didn't know I had the clock til someone showed it to me. Glad to pass that on to you Scary. Nice to meet and eat with everyone there and meet some of the better halves.

Yikes! Take care of that "seashell" now!

Do I have a warrantee issue?

Had my left side develop the crack too after about 800 miles. It was replaced under warranty but it felt like I really had to convince the dealer that it wasn't from something I might have run into. -
Craig, you directed this at raceman but with my bar I had a dealer install them. I didn't want to mess with it...took them all day

Yup, forgot about the knees. I rotated my up a bit for clearance (mini ape hangars) and it helped.
