    Default SEAT PRODUCTS TO GET ME LOWER TO THE SURFACE

    I am vertically challenged with only 28" in leg length. I tried to lower my bike however, the kit resulted in the bike bottoming out on the lowest setting so its up the next notch and not quite enough. Cobra no longer makes the lowering kit for the 800 Vulcan classic so I am hoping to get a seat that may put me lower in the saddle and purchase new risers to get my arms in the correct position.
    I have a mustang wide seat that is fabulous for long rides; I found the Mustang daytripper and Saddlemens Explorer with or without the split cushion as possible options and interested in knowing if anyone has these seats. If so, have they given you distance to the surface and how is the ride? Thank you

    I have a 900 but, I changed out my shock to a progressive 465 series with a 1" drop. It lowered my butt considerably. My feet sit flat on the ground and I easily roll the bike around. Not sure about the 800 but it is something to look into. I checked and it looks like they do make one for the 800.
