• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Ultimate Seat

Installed my Ultimate Seat today with rider back rest. Like any new seat it will need to be broken-in. So far though I like it better than the stock RT seat and the Corbin.
 
Can anyone tell me is an Ultimate any softer than a Corbin? Tried that and couldn't get used to the hardness and slipperiness of it.
 
Yes the Ultimate is softer than my old Corbin. My old Corbin was definitely "slippery" as well.

I just installed an Ultimate short with back rest after hearing good things about them on this site. I went on a trip and after a hundred miles I was convinced that it was another waste of money. After 300 miles my opinion had changed to the positive. Byt the second day I was satisfied with it. I don't think it got any softer. I think I got use to sitting in the seat and not sliding around on it like the stock seat and the comfort seat. The back rst is kind of nice too. So overall I would give this a grade of "B".
 
I have a Temperpedic mattress that needed a break in and as I understand it the Ultimate is made of the same material. In any case, after a couple of hundred mile break in, it does a great job. Next month I am going to run an Iron Butt One Thousand and that will be real test!

One caution - don't let it sit in the direct sunlight without covering it. It hold the heat real well!
 
Have had several Corbins, and always got rid of them; just to firm. Am on my 4th Ultimate seat on various bikes, and on my RT it is, as usual, by far the most comfortable of the bunch. Put a few hundred miles on them, and your "butt" will love you!! :D
 
I like my Ultimate seat a lot.
