I like the looks of this seat. Thank you for sharing!

Stock seat works great for me, you break in to it after awhile.

HD Fan - I've searched the Drag Specialties catalog and cannot find an exact match to your seat. Do you know the name or part number to your seat? Yours looks like the seat I need.
Thanking you in advance.

On my Slim I liked the shape of the stock seat, but the padding is quite thin. My bony butt hurts after 50 miles or so. I got a used Mustang Blackline with a back ret. It is a lot better but not perfect, at least for me. It puts pressure on my inner thighs which start to bother me after awhile. It still looks pretty new and I am hoping with more use I will settle more into it. I love the backrest and don't do any longer rides without it.

I'm a big fan of le pera seats. They can do anything you want to customize it for your needs. I own the Cherokee and bare bones. Love them both.
