Picked up a sweet 2012 Raven a couple weeks ago with 2,200 miles, always garaged, it's a beauty!
I'm 63 years young with arthritis and multiple back surgeries, so comfort is paramount. It was obvious the seat position was too low for my 36" inseam. Switched the seat to the "High" position. That's about 3/4" higher. That was better, but still not what I wanted. So I modified my setup. Now I am a full 1.5" higher. Also, the seat is much more secure now. Stock it wiggled around quite a bit. Now its perfect!
The problem was it left a huge gap between the seat and the frame. U-G-L-Y! So I fabricated a "gap filler" for both sides. Check it out. I'm happy with it now. Have 1" up and 1" back risers to fit next and I may be done. That should do it for my riding position.
Also did fender delete, integrated tail light, flush front signals, frame sliders, fender hugger and a custom fit tail bag/back pack I'm pretty happy with.
