Just bought a new seat for $483 delivered from parts monster. They are on ebay and list the seat all the time if you want one.

Congratulations! I am very happy with my Sargent seat - it's a great improvement over stock - you got it fast and at a good price!

Okay one complaint. They sent a $483 seat in a 2 dollar box and it bent the piece at the back of the front seat that the rear seat slides into.

What's the story? Are they not willing to make the shipping damage right for you? :confused:

I told them that they shipped it in a box that was very poorly constructed and had too much space in it and the seat flew around inside of it and when the box showed up at my door, holes were punched in the sides and the bottom had fallen out.

They said to file a claim with UPS. :mad:

I installed the saddle in the mid-position as I had the stock saddle, however, my ride position seems to have changed. I now experience stress on my wrists and strain in my neck and shoulders. Anyone else have this problem or can anyone recommend a fix?

For me the saddle removed all palm/shoulder soreness/strain. Same saddle position for stock, Rocky Mayer and Sargent. Middle position.

I ordered my saddle directly from Sargent. Sargent sent the saddle by US post, it took 37 days to arrive! I'm guessing the delay to be attributable to packaging reviews by both US and Canada Customs. However, the saddle, the passenger pillon and the back rest were well packed and arrived in perfect condition.

I noticed the difference too today as you described. I put it in the lower position. I will see what happens but so far it did transfer the pain in my *** to the pain in my neck.

Same thing when I traded the old wife to the new wife. (just kidding).

BTW you must add risers.
