Thanks for adding that information about weight.   For instance, from what I recall, if you weigh more than 225 they put in a metal flex bar.  Also you may want to indicate if the rear portion of the saddle has been modified for a passenger and what materials (color) the covering is.  Mine is cloth.  Pictures help as well.

Open question...is the seat pan from a 2008 or 2009 C14 interchangeable with that of a 2010 C14?

Comfort wise, I think the Russell seats are the best. My only complaint about it was being a little closer to the gas tank. I wish they would move the front portion of the seat back a little and leave less for the passenger. Just my .02...

Thx for the confirmation that the seat pans for the C14 are the same from 08 through to 10(at least).
Email sent to seller.
