    Default Handle bar seat combo

    2016 F3T,
    stock seat and bars. Just can't get comfortable. 6'5" what bars and seats are the tall riders using?

    just put 3.5 inch riser by ROX. A lot more comfortable right out of box and now I have 2 pivot points to adjust from to final tune. If anyone interested I can post pics

    I am just over 6' and I have moved pegs forward 1 notch stock seat and Attitude Bars. I have no problem riding
    for long periods.
    I originally had lower back issues riding stock seat, bars, pegs, and it turns out the bars made the biggest difference.
    I was almost leaning back while riding. Now I lean forward just a little, makes a big difference.

    I have floorboards and out in position 5 and I still feel that the saddle is too short. I also get the feeling I'm pushing down on the bars. Just haven't found that comfort level yet. Thanks for the info.

    6'7" 38" inleg ....stock bars rotated up a couple of inches, Russell Daylong seat made to suit that bar position and foot position 5. Perfect for all day riding for me. None of the OEM seats worked for me.

    Do you remember what the part or model number was? This may be a decent option also? Thanks
