I'll get a profile up when I finish putting the final touches to the bike (sun EZ sport). Hey Happy, isn't that moon seat supposed to be the other way around, is it comfy that way?
 
It's made to go on that way, and advertised that way, but you can reverse it if you like. Most likely though if reversed it will annoy you greatly, and the rails will not let you level it unless you have old fashioned seat guts.
The wings are mostly for looks, but do take some body weight by spreading out the load from the backs of your legs and sit bones.
It's not the most comfortable saddle I've used, but it works great for riding in jeans or pants, and works as intended for anatomical concerns. :love:
