Russell Day Long Group Buy

[Trip]

I know someone I know was wanting a Russell, well the group buy is going. They started it up, if you want one of these seats, get on it now. Russell only does this once a year and they always fill up.

They are custom seat makers, you send in your seat pan and they redo the entire thing up.

These guys own the patent for the original Bill Mayer seat design. The new Bill Mayer is not the same as the old better design.

It's the seats I have on the GS.

Oh yeah... how do they compare in pricing of other options that would be a whole new seat? Those are the ones that you have with the Always Stay dry wings...right?

About the same as a whole new seat, they are pricey, but they are definitely the best on the market for comfort for nonpirate bikes. Yeah.

depends on what you order, my two seats were about $400

there is a ton of different styles and options that cost more. I got the most weather resistant option, which was also one of the cheapest.

Yeah I hate when you sit on a wet seat... even if you wipe it off the water is in the padding and bleeds back thru
