I've heard the tree is super comfy

I loved my tree slim then I switched to the fat and it was even better some how. Might not look the best but I'll choose function over style any day.

Fat.
I sit on mine. So I like a larger seat.
Currently have an Odyssey in red. Gonna probably switch back to my Shadow.

fat seats look odd but are so much better , i ride a slim one and i wish i had a fat one. if you ever come down hard and miss your pedal it doesnt feel like your getting a piece of plastic in the ass

Looks as though I'm the only Vital member that prefers a slim. Cool beans I guess.

I actually like both depending on the ride. I think fatter seats look better if you're gonna run a higher seat, I also think they look better with bigger bars for some reason. Slim seats can look good though, for example look at one of deharts bikes.

I like fat seats myself because sitting on a slim seat obviously isn't going to be as comfortable as a fat seat.

I prefer a seat that is in between kinda like a mid but more of a sleek fat sea like the BSD beverage seat. It is a fat seat so it makes large drops to straight nutting yourself on not hurt as bad because of the padding. yet it looks slim and isn't that wide so it doesn't get in the way like wider fat seats.

fat = looks better and usually street riders use them
slim = ugly (in my opinion) like all park riders have them

Depends on the seat. I didnt beleive slim seats could be comfortable until I got my integral seat. On my 24+ bikes I use fattys tho since I'm mostly cruising.but my buddy likes the fat seats cz he said u can pinch it with the knees easier
