Now have 55,000 miles on the. Heritage now.

Stock seat still as comfortable as the day I bought it.

 

Then one of two things or both is at play here. Either you're well under 180lbs and/or you have a butt made for twerking on TicTok! LOL!

At least that's what the guy at Ultimate Seats basically had to say about the inexpensive use of open cell foam in HD stock seats and that pending body weight?...you're comfortable for about an hour and then the foam is compressed to the point that you are basically sitting on the seat pan.

 

I weigh only 154 and couldn't stand the stock seat for more than 40 minutes at a time. It wasn't the foam, it was the rearward slope of the seating surface that compressed my spine against the seat back, causing a pressure point that made me feel as if all my weight was on my tail bone.

 

This aspect is a common denominator amongst seats that have a reputation for being comfortable. Look at police seats, springer solos, and RDL's... The all sit level.

Of course another key aspect it their surface area - how they distribute the weight evenly over a wider area. Then there's the foam that's used etc. etc...

 

You would think that’s the case but I am actually 225.

Yes I do have some junk in the trunk so that helps.

There will be no twerking in my future.
Nobody wants to see that lol 😆.
