#929663 Sfninerfan69 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 104 ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   Hi all. Looking to possibly finally pull the trigger on a new seat. I am 6-2 230 and have a 2003 Silverado 1600. I hate my current seat and get about 45 minutes of ride time before I have to get off. I also feel like I'm sitting on top of rather in the seat. So I'm looking for a deeper seat pocket but also need all the leg room I can get. I know a lot of you have purchased and love this seat so looking for some guidance on the right seat for me. So is it the Big Tourer or Standard   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #929666 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   I'm about your size, and I'm happy with the Big Touring. The Standard, sits you lower, but it will also move you forward. I think they have a trial period, so if it doesn't feel right, you can try the other. I have a Corbin that sits me lower on one of my bikes, but I have Beach bars on that bike, so the shift forward, isn't that big of a deal. I don't make a lot of long trips on the solo(Corbin) bike either. I think the Touring, is much more comfortable for extended periods, even if it sits me higher on the bike. YMMV.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #929668 Arps (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 4415 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   6-1, 280 big tour, very happy   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #929671 Lug Nut (User) Motorcycle-Based Therapeutic Intervention works!

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1904 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   I'm 6'1" & 215 lbs. & ride the standard. Fits me great & I find the lower sitting position very comfortable. As has been said, try one or the other for the trial period. If it's not for you, send it back & get the other. It's a win-win!   Logged     http://s671.photobucket.com/user/jhurdle/library/?sort=6&page=1   The administrator has disabled public write access. #929674 Bigrigme (User) Chris Platinum Boarder Posts: 3176 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   I'm 6'0" and 190 lbs and have the big tour.

Great seat with lots of wiggle room!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #929693 Dogbone (User) AUDENTES FORTUNA JUVAT Platinum Boarder Posts: 1433 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   I'm 6'3" 200# and have the standard. I like sitting lower in the bike. If leg room is an issue, you can always extend the floorboards forward.   Logged     ' width='250' border='0' style='max-width:450px; ' />   The administrator has disabled public write access. #929712 roadie14 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 124 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   I'm 6'2", 220, got the big touring and love it - took a couple hundred miles to break in and now the difference over stock is amazing. I have not tried the standard - but I don't have very long legs, wear a 32 inseam, and I wouldn't want to give up an inch of the leg room I have with the big touring seat   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #929728 Jlb76 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1609 Re:ED Big Touring or Standard 2 Years, 4 Months ago   6' 270 and I have the big touring recover on the stock pan. Saves about $100 and real easy to do. Very comfy   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
