I recently got a good deal on a used Russell Day Long (RDL) front seat. I haven't gotten to test it out much, but am not thrilled so far. The feel and riding position is not bad, but putting both feet down at a stop is the big issue. I have to slide forward to the tank to get both feet down, and even then I'm on my toes. The seat is at the lowest position. Is this typical for the RDL because of the side support, or is it potentially an issue with this particular one being fitted for a much different body type?
I guess I can see how the RDL might be more comfortable on long hauls, but for local rides it seems like a pain. For comparison, I just had a stock seat Spencerized. It allows me to nearly flat foot when stopped and feels pretty comfortable, but again have not gotten enough seat time for a decent evaluation.
