I looked at your avatar pic and the style of seat that you have on your bike is what I need! Can you send me more information on the seat.

Doug,

Its a Corbin Gunfighter made for the Z1/Kz900/1000s. AS far as I know those are the only KZ applications that Corbin makes seats for.
I'm also quite tall, and lanky I might add. I'm 6'5" and roughly 180-190lbs. My everyday ride is a Ducati M750 with clip-ons and a tailchop. Makes it about the same size as the newer Buells but not as tall. I look like a monkey humping a football as one of my coworkers puts it.

But don't you just envy the shorter guys, they don't have to look for a car that fit's, they never have to worry about low doorways or low ceiling fans, and they fit on the LTD/CSR models
But they have a hard time reaching stuff on the top shelf and changing a light bulb in a ceiling light while standing on the floor
It is cool to go to auctions and be able to see over the heads of most people.
