I am curious how hard is it for a leather worker to reshape a softail deluxe seat. The seat as it stands has 2 pressure points right below the *** that I know for sure will be a pain. Also to get rid of the weave and replace it with it with a different mat.

 

Spent about an hour on my deluxe seat last night and aside from cutting into the inner thighs when both feet are planted, it seems pretty decent (though not cushy).

I imagine you're looking at a complete recover anyway, so reshaping the foam shouldn't be a problem for a leather guy.

 

K man ty for that.

 

Other times I've spent hours in the seat and still only the cutting when feet are planted (much like a fatboy seat does), but it's lower and looks better than the stock heritage seat, so It will have to do me. Other mods await...

Check this site out, ive heard a ton of great feedback about them boys

 

I dont know about comfort. But some of the best looking modified Deluxe seats I have seen ,are on the Ryan Reed Designs Bikes. Maybe you can contact him and see who he uses.

 

Most guys I have seen as leather workers can really do some awesome stuff. I would think a good leather worker can do just about anything you want. Most of those guys are very talented.

 

WOW, some pretty sweet looking rides at Ryan's.

 

I'd be very interested to see your results. I love the look of the Deluxe seat but absolutely hate the way it rides. The pressure points between the thighs are not just a problem for me when putting my feet down. They are a problem all the time and caused lots of pain and cramping in my legs. I thought about trying to reshape it but figured it wasn't worth the trouble. If I think good results can be had and still be able to put the stock cover back on then I will give it a go. Otherwise I will probably just get rid of it along with the matching touring pillion and tour pack that I have to go with it.
