It's big, it's ugly, it's an RDL with less than 1000 miles on it! I'm the original purchaser. This seat has the internal suspension option for heavier riders. This is the rider seat only - no passenger seat.

It sits taller than stock: in the "low" position, it feels about the same height as the stock seat in "high." So in "high" it's taller still. I asked them to build it with the pocket back an inch and up an inch vs. stock. If you are short or have a short reach, you probably don't want this seat.

I found myself scooching forward out of the "pocket", which has led to two crease marks on the saddle (see pic).

Asking $450.

Shipping on this is not trivial (I think I paid close to $100 shipping when I bought it), so I'd like to not commit to including shipping in the selling price. I'm willing to split shipping, and I'm open to other reasonable options (meet to exchange locally, local delivery, etc.).

I’m curious why you’re selling it? If it’s not the right fit Russell will modify it once at no cost for the original buyer. I think you just have to pay shipping.

Located in central Florida.

@JoWhee: They did mod it once. I just don't like where it lands my butt, I think the surface is too slippery, and honestly I'd rather have the money for other stuff.
