A little taller / more pull back bars . Seat came in last Thursday , and the two changes put together make for some comfort . May have to throw on some cruise control this fall .

Does not look like you could find a more comfortable saddle. Hard to tell from the side pic does it look totally aftermarket or does it stay with in the body lines??
 
not seen when you sit on it , but the wings are inside the overall body of the bike , Stock seat looks better by looks only . Think of a really pretty gal but she wont do anything in the sack thats wort it . Now think of a slightly plump girl , but still looks nice who rocks your world . That is the new seat :)
 
Have you had a chance to hit any twisties? Just curious how well you can move around on it. Have always wanted to try a Russells seat have heard nothing but the best.
 
Not yet nosbig , but will in a few weeks . the wings will affect coming off saddle some . This is a sport model so the wings are not as large as a full day long seat . there is a pocket were one can slide forward , and out/off if desired / That is how I touch the ground now / 30" inseam , bike is not lowered , running a 190/55 rear tire , last new seat adds 1.25 " of seat height
 
Pic in the real world . Went to fill up tonight for a 350 mile ride tomorrow . Ill let you know how good it is by tomorrow night .

It was a mixed feeling at first glance. But with the bags and all on, it's right at home. Looks good!

You are the only one I know that spends big money to make his "hot chick" into a fat woman with winged thighs. bahahaha
But no kidding it looks like you have a clear vision of what you want and everything is in harmony with it so you end up with a Gold Wing that handles and when you twist the wrist runs like a raped ape...Who can fault that???

I rode my '15 for the first time this year (I know but been busy) down to my brothers last week, rode around central FL then back home 525 or so miles and I'll tell you what, the last 75 miles I would have given you 1000 bucks for that seat on the spot! :beerchug:
 
Just a tick over 350 miles today . Did 172 with never leaving the saddle . It is by far the best seat ever on any bike I have owned period .
It was 99 degrees today , and no swamp butt either with the leather option . Leather breathes were vinyl does not . That was explained to me by Russell day long so it was worth the $100 extra .

Like your Busa. I was worried the Givis would not fit over the Yoshi R77 full exhaust I have but it looks like it's cool on yours with similar can. Do you think the side bag rack will work without a license plate bracket? I decided not to get one because I have a hugger style back and the stock one is long gone.
 
The lower side brackets need the cross bar @ the plate mount . The oem plate mount bolts to sub frame . I put mine together without oem rear fender and it was not right . you could push bags left or right at lower Mount area . Found a pen fender the problem solved .
 
that actually make stye bike look pretty slick! geeeez looks so comfortable to. that is definitely the best lookn tour Busa set up around.
them side bags look great to! lovn the no stickers looks so much better
