Getting new Day Long seat for my Black RTS SE5....Black bike with tan seat????
I am shipping my extra RTS seat off to Day-Long for a custom job. My bike is black and was going for a black seat. out of the blue, I am wondering what a tan seat would look like instead of black.
Any thoughts??? Appreciate all opinions
(if I went with the tan seat i was thinking about some tan Pete's "decals" on the front fenders)
Help......important decision.

I think that would look really good, but it's a decision only you can make. Sorry, not much help, but think of the possibilities!! It's your ryde, make it your own!!
I want to see pictures either way!!

Tan ( or othe color) seat makes it unique. I like the idea.

Tan seat with a black body. That would look very classy. I'd say go for it.
My F-150 King Ranch is tan over black and those combo's go well together.

Thanks everyone! I called Kim at Russell Day Long and she is going to send me little samples of their different tan colors. I have already written to Pete about the stripe wraps for the frunk and the lock side of the passenger back rest. Maybe some sort of tribal stripes...don't know for sure but definitely going with a saddle tan color (if they offer that)!!!
Thank you all for the input!

Dave, I asked Russell Day Long for another quote as I am now doing the passenger back rest. It's not cheap BUT it is fitted to you, not just off the rack. Also getting the rain cover, etc.
Will let you know the damage as soon as I find out what adding the passenger back rest will cost!
I go on long rides every weekend and I just can't take the stock seat anymore. Corbins are wayyyyyyy too hard for my boney backside soooooooooo, hello Day Long!

You will love your Russell. I've had one on my GS for the last 3 years. I can honestly say I can ride all day on mine. You just don't see anything negative written about the Russells(other than the price) I've never seen one for sale here on SL. So I assume the people that have them, like them as much as I like mine. If you look at the long term comfort you will receive, it's a bargain.
Love my

Can't help with the color...
