I'm 6'2" and just recently I took 2-3 layers of 3m tape and attached it to the bottom of the seat where it rests on the metal bracket for the gas tank. I found that this made the stock seat much more comfortable by raising the front of it a little. I had a problem with sliding to the tank all the time and some pinching if you get my drift, this helped. You will have to press the seat down a little when screwing it back in since the holes are slightly raised after it.

yes, they seem to "open" up the rider cockpit and makes the bike feel "bigger". Those, along with a Corbin seat, really transforms the bike to a larger feeling platform.

I've always wanted to get rearsets but does clip-ons really do that? i don't really get why people get clipons.
