Stock to Comfort to Russell

[Capt John]

I submitted my order form today for a Russell Day Long. I'm upgrading from the BRP Comfort seat. I'm looking forward to getting this new seat. I've sit on a few Corbins and while I have nothing against them. I decided I don't have a Corbin butt. I'll really get to try it out on my trip to Gatlinburg.

Keep us posted as to if you like it and how well. I know it has saved Brian and me for many miles. Couldn't have taken the trips we have without our Russells. I highly recommend them to anyone.

I have had my Russell for 2 summers now and have loved it! I've had no discomfort at all since getting it. I hope you enjoy it as much.

:2thumbs: I did almost 6K on mine with Irish on the trip of a lifetime. I could not have done it on the stock seat. Love it.

Russell on spyder

The Russell came in yesterday after I left for work. So when I got home this morning I installed it. As soon as I got finished with the install the rain started. I decide to grab a few hrs sleep because got to work tonight. I thought I get a little ryde in before work....guess what more rain :gaah:

I started the process on July 7th with online ordering. I got a production date of Aug 2th. RCP finished it up and shipped out on Aug 13th. Six weeks from start to getting it back for me. I guess it depends on how busy they are.

Randy. How do you like the backrest. I wish I would have gotten one. Great looking seat.

Deb,
I really like it just sitting on it, but I have yet to get to ryde it. The rain and my work schedule has prevented me from getting a ryde in. I've looked at the weather tonight (I'm on the boat working till 5 AM) it suppose to nice. I'm going to do about 80 miles to Pensacola and back in the morning, so I'll really get to check it out. :2excited:

I, for one, am waiting to hear about your 1st ride. I'm on the verge of ordering one for myself to upgrade from the Comfort seat just like you. On my previous GW trike I had a Diamond seat and it was great! The Day Long looks a lot like that. opcorn:

According to Russell it takes between 500 -1000 miles for break in. So I don't know how accurate one 80 mile ryde would be. But I'm anxious to get back in the saddle.
