I bought a sargent for this very thing, and have my stocker in my garage waiting to pull the plug. THe sargent is good enough for now, but russel is sooo tempting.
Ugly or no, I'd send off for one in a second if I had a spare seat. I just had Spencer do my seat with an HT Moto cover and I'm very happy with it, but it still has about a 300 mile/day limit. I would love to keep my seat for daily commuting and have a Russell for trips.
I can eat up the miles with my Baldwin too, and it looks great!!!! Seriously......you gotta get the seat that is best for you, but I have ridden on Corbins and Sargents, and my Baldwin is the best without question. The Russell looks good on a Goldwing or an Electraglide, but not on a C14..........IMHO.
The Russell is kinda like a fat girl...............fun to ride until somebody sees you.
I love my Baldwin as well. But I think I'm going to get a Russell at some point for the LONG trips. Every bit helps. It may be butt ugly, but I doubt it's ugly to my butt! LOL
Anyone in the Philadelphia area with a Russell? Can I see it? Touch it? feel it?

I like the look of the Baldwin. Any experience 2 up? What does she think?

My Russell turnaround was 8 weeks in both cases (C10 & C14) but I do live a long way from Shasta, CA.
I can't deal with my Corbin anymore and need to make a change as well. I've heard that the Russell's are good for "bigger" boys and with me falling into that category, I need something better.
Anyone in the New England area have one that I can sit on?
