The seat has been great. I find it to be comfortable and fitting. I've only been out for 5 hours or so on it, but it held up well.
I had Corbin shave the seat down pretty good for height reasons as well as bring the back portion in a bit so I don't slide back too far. That's why it looks...
That's not very smart of him. My best friend is a single, super sexy rider and he could have had a chance with her. But nooooooo, he's too short sighted to think of the possibilities that a married female rider might know other not married female riders. Oh well, his loss.
