If a stock '06 seat will fit, it might be worth looking into. HD claims they've improved the seats for '06 and I believe them. The stock seat on my Dyna is just about the best seat I've sat. Of course, it could just be that my bony rear fits this seat and I got lucky. I thought the info was worth passing on, and maybe see what some other '06 owners think about the new seats.

This is my first Harley, however my Ultra seat is certainly of the 1-1.5 hour variety.

Nabnormal,
You might consider a stock seat from a late model road glide. They are sportier looking and little lower than the electraglide seats, but not quite as comfortable on the long hauls. I put one on my '05 Eglide classic and I think it improved the looks 100% when the tour pack is off, which is pretty often.

I did a search earlier Im just not use to all the options. With my VTX the choices were very slim so it wasnt that hard to make a decision...
