Default Mother Road Custom seats

Hi,
I am looking at picking up a Mother Road Custom seat and pan with springs for my 2013 48. Any one here using one and have any thoughts or input about them? If you have one on a 48 I would like to see a picture if you can.
Thanks

Great seat. Very good quality and quite comfortable. I'm not running springs on mine but here's a good look at it.

Love mine! Got the 10x13 spring seat a few weeks ago! With the stock shocks it absorbs the bumps a lot better. After putting on road glide shocks, it's smooth as butter!

What size did everyone get? the 10inch or 12inch wide? I sat on a friends biltwell which measures at 10 x 13 and it felt a bit small. I'm not that big of a dude either.

Mine is 12x13. I think she makes 13x15 for larger butts.

Mine is small, not sure the size but it's pretty slim when looked from behind.

I was debating between the 10 and 12inch wide. My buddy has the biltwell slimline which is 10x13 and I thought it was too small (I'm not that big 5'5 140lb) So I just went with my gut and got the 12x13. Hopefully it doesn't look too bulky. I will post up pictures as soon as I get the kit on and installed.

Mine is a 10" x 13" I got from Rich Philips. I'm pretty sure he makes the mother roads seats. It is the perfect size but if I could do it over I would have them kick up the back a little higher. I really like his newer snub nose seats.
