    It’s the slide isolator. Turn it left and the seat will rock back and forth. Tighten it up and it locks the slide down

    Much better ride when your seat will rock back and forth.

    That depends on the type of music you're listening to.

    With it all the way left so it rocks, it's better for your back right?

    It tends to take a little shock out of rough roads. So you don’t get beat up quite as bad

    For me it just makes the seat slushy feeling.
    I like the seat to be a hard point, not mushing about in all directions.
