anyone got one of these seats, i am 6ft wondering about leg comfert being down 1.5 inches lower. also they said being bigger you sit on the hump a little. and it is comfortable. any thoughts? thanks my tobin sucks
 
u say your tobin sucks? New image and tobin are exactly the same, done by Lee@new image now. I'm 6'1" and had my seats done by him and are very happy with them. Buell peg mod helped tremendously also
 
if ur tobin sucks why would u be looking at the new image they are exactly the same thing i have a tobin and love it im 6 ft 2
 
Ive got a new image on my gen1, leg position took a day to get used to, but not a problem at all
 
I'm 6' and don't like my New Image but I love my Corbin with the Buell peg mod. Might do the Corbin mod to cut down the ridge on the sides though.
 
I have the new image front and rear on my 2008 not liking it much either.. getting a corbin rear with back rest for the wife next friday. I will probabally look for a gel for me
 
I have a new image seat on my 08 and don't care for it much. I'm only 5'8" though My issue is the rear hump. I do alot of spirited riding and don't like not being able to use all the seat on turns.. About to buy a Corbin so I can swap it out with my stock seat when I feel like it..
 
my tobin/new image is very comfy at 6'1", tons better than the stocker. The reduced leg room really didn't bother me much at all, and i have long legs. The rear seat on the other hand, love the look of it but the wife hates it. Ended up buying her a corbin w/backrest and she is much happier now
 
Tobin/New Image you sit IN the bike. Stock seat you sit ON the bike.

Put 20,000 miles on mine.

But back to the stock seat with a Second Look Seat Cover. Can't drag knees on the Tobin/New Image & only do max mileage of about 450/per day.

Swapped bikes with an 08 Busa the other day with a Corbin. It was horrible. :( Flat & hard. Just didn't fit me.

ive drug knee at the track and on the street with my tobin why are u saying u cant
 
Well I was about to go for a New Image and after reading this thread I decided to change direction and get a Corbin (All my others have Corbins), found a brand new one on eBay for decent price, will report back ASAP. My pegs are actually raised, so if it's more uncomfortable, then I'll still try a New Image.

My sore @$$ after yesterday's ride is highly motivating me! :thumbsup:
 
Love my New Image. I'm 6'5" and feel more comfortable than I did when using the stock seat.
