The plan was for it to be completed and drop shipped to the start of the seven day Butt Lite 7 rally. I wasn't too enthusiastic about riding a 7 day rally with the Laam seat. Well, the seat didn't arrive in time so I had to suffer through with the Laam.
The seat did arrive before the rally end and I immediately installed it for the ride home (2000 miles).
As I have reported with my blogs on the Laam seat, seating comfort is a function of time. A seat that feels good for a Sunday morning run with you buddies, may not feel good after a full day, and so on.
I am very pleased with the RDL. Since I only had the rider seat converted the price wasn't that much higher than the Laam. I've put quite a few miles on it but so far nothing more than about 2 days at a time. So far I quite happy with the RDL and wish I would have stayed with my original plan to get the RDL first thing.
I'll know more later this year. I'm in the 54 hour Heart of Texas Rally in April, the 30 hour Mason Dixon 2020 in May, and the Iron Butt Rally in June. I expect that my days in the saddle and miles traveled to be 30 and 30,000 respectively.
Here are the pictures.
