Thanks for the feedback guys. I am in Australia so can't get my seat to Mean City

Any idea what they do to the seat so I can find someone here in Perth to do same ?

Cheers

Saintslax11, what work did you have done to the sissy bar ?

Thanks for sharing the info. I was stuck with making a decision for a seat for my Rocker C. Like many guys on this forum I chose to go with a Danny Gray and will change back to the stock 'trick seat' when my girlfriend needs to 'hop on'. First I have heard of the Heartland seat being uncomfortable. Regards....Doug

PS. When do you want the Ashes back, lol COME ON ENGLAND!!!

PSS. Great looking Bike

My wife thinks the seat is fine. It was the sissy bar that was 2 low. I added 4 inches to the sissy bar to make it higher on her back.

Anyone know if it would be possible to replace the Heartland rider seat and 2nd seat with a two-up seat from another Harley model ? Can such a modification be made ? I like the Heartland conversion for the Rocker C but not so much the seat and 2nd seat option.

Do you ship out of the country?
Yes. We have worked on seats from all over the world. Payment options vary depending on certain countries, but we do ship globally and do require all export documents and fees be paid by you and we can surely work something out.
