I have a Viper and it will be my 3rd year with it. I like the idea of the bar on the front- I keep it at a level where it is just touching the top of my knee-caps when sitting so when I stand, I can lean out and use it a support. Additionally, I will turn around and sit on the bar for extended periods of time and survey the land behind me. I actually paid for the Air-cusion seat with the extended backrest, and after trying it, I switched back to the original....just another gimmick in my opinion and something else to tie down when transporting. Overall I love the stand and think that it sounds like a deal if it is truly in good shape.
