Rdl

Got a late delivery from UPS
Can’t wait to compare it to the one on my Nomad. I still have to fix that oil leak. The Hylomar sealant should be here this weekend.

It's warming up. You probably don't have an oil leak now.

That is one nice looking seat. I thought they looked like tractor seats, so I have heard. But this doesn't look like a tractor seat.

Nice, Framer. If I had your money I'd burn mine.

If you saw one on a bike they do not appear like a tractor seat they are very attractive in my opinion. But others can have their own say.

This is the only seat and I have had about 14 bikes in past from Goldwings to Ventures to all sorts of bikes that I can ride for 12 hours plus with not a problem.

I doubt if any other seat could do that for me the goldwing seat could not do what this one does no other seat has.

If any of you ever get one you will be pleased I am sure beyond compare. But again all to their own opinion.

Trust me. I did 800 miles in a day without my Russell seat.....I could care less what it looks like. I would have paid a lot more on that day for the comfort.

I bought my RDL shortly afterward.

A comfy seat gives my bike triple the enjoyment. I can go a full tank (300 miles) without a butt break...but usually stop earlier because some one else in my group needs one.

So I Am picking up a vibe that if I am Old and …..it makes the seat look better?? and is acceptable in it's looks???

OK, I'm there. Seems I am in the comfort age. Saving up now for one. And I always thought old people bought Gold Wings.
