urban assault seat

[DSHUMAKER]

Hey all I've been considering picking up a urban assault seat for my xb12ss. Does anyone ride with one? Comments, suggestions? I want all opinions on the seat. If you have one pictures would be nice.

I love the urban assault seat on my Ss

I think it's more comfortable then the stock seat so the only time I ever have the stock seat on is when I have a passenger.

 

[DSHUMAKER]

How much taller than stock is it?

 

[okey]

Its a little taller than stock but a permanent seat on my bike . I am pleased to have one .

 

[DSHUMAKER]

I can flat foot with the stock but just fine. I'm about 5'10" and don't want a seat that gives me to much of a stretch to the ground.

 

[06xbss]

Because of the shape of the urban assault seat I can get more of my foot on the ground then I can with a stock seat. It's less then 1/2in taller and has a little more narrow profile.

 

[DSHUMAKER]

That's what I was hoping for. I've found them on ebay for around $130.00 shipped. I didn't think that was bad.

I've got one NIB leftover from when I had an SS that I could send you for $100 shipped.

I wish i could put one of these on a CityX

 

[DSHUMAKER]

Lol yah but you standard size types get all the fun seats.

 

[thrstrmech]

this was the seat that came on my bike when I bought it almost 9 yrs ago

 

[cjanderson_90]

^ that's the seat I have

 

[DSHUMAKER]

That looks like my long seat but nicer.

M0090.1AJ, but it's for standard Lightnings

 

[cjanderson_90]

Comparing these two pics makes me think I should take it to my buddies dad and have him reshape it and recover it with grippy dirt bike like material

 

[thrstrmech]

for reference of the high and standard seats...

Got my urban assault seat today!!!! Thanks byrdock this thing looks awesome!! I can hardly wait to give it a try.

I was reading that the passenger pegs have to be removed to put the urban assault seat on. What causes the pegs and brackets to need to be removed? What gets in the way? or is that crap?

Have lots of fun with it DSHUMAKER!! Let us know how it works for you.
