I thought about lucky daves, it is a great looking seat. I went with the saddlemen. It was a little stiff at first , feels just right now.

I was initially going to get the LD seat but now am really considering the Saddlemen. Reason being, I've read about feed-back where: 1) the Saddlemen does a better job holding the rider in place during turns and 2) the passenger section on a Saddlemen is wider so it's more comfortable for a passenger. Can any of you either confirm or deny this? I'd love the LD seat to match up to my existing LD lucky 13" bars but am also concerned about functionality and comfortability with my passengers. They seem to both use a gel insert so I'd imagine they are both comfortable.

I can only compare it to my stock seat, it is a lot better ( I know that's not saying much) in every way. I bet you would not regret the choice of either one. If you do not want the saddlemen logo,you can order it direct from saddlemen, and specify your request. I found that out after I ordered mine from Jp cycles.

Sir, how is it like on turns? Have you had any passengers on it? I live near them, when I get to that point I'll pay them a visit to see if they can do some custom work to it.

Good in the turns. You can really maneuver well in the twisties with this seat. As far as passenger my wife only weighs 110 pounds so it does not take a lot of seat to make her happy, she did not say she didn't like it. Passenger part is wider than the stock wide glide pillion seat, so it cant be any worse. It is a performance seat so it's not gonna score the best as far as passenger comfort.

Thanks for your input. I'll be going with the Saddlemen.

If I sent u my saddlemen seat how much if possible to remove side saddlemen logo? I am not disgruntled at all with my purchase. The side logo is not bad, at least on blends in. But I would prefer not to have it on there . I have been thinking about having it altered. Other than that I am very happy with the new seat.

thats funny I wanted the logo and didn't get one 😂 Ordered from revzilla

as as for the seat it will sit you a little up i have a tuck and roll style step in without gripper material and it is grippy enough ran it for 150 miles in the rain with no worries of slipping off it. Takes a couple hundred miles to break in though but after its great
