Sun Ray Heated Seat on '08 Ultra Classic
I am considering putting a Sun Ray Heated Seat on my '08 Ultra. It is new seat for the '08's so I don't believe there is much, if any, expreience with them yet. Any comments, pro or con, on the Sun RayHeated Seat that fits the '97-'07 Touring models?

RE: Sun Ray Heated Seat on '08 Ultra Classic
I put one on last year to replace the stock POS. The wife and I absolutely love it. We can ride all day long, like we never could before. And on those cooler to cold spring and fall mornings, the three heat settings really take the chill off yer a$$ and warm ya up real quick!
Highly recommend it.[sm=smiley20.gif]
Ride safe, my friend!

Put mine on last year and love it. Definitely one of my better mods. Very comfortable seat and the heat feature is a thing of beauty. I don't think it has ever been on the high setting as the medium setting will keep you very toasty. Using it nightly as of late since temps are already in the low 50s at nightaround here.

I too have the 08 SE Ultra Classic with the heated seat as standard equip. It only has two settings, low & high and works really well as far as I am conserned. As for looks and seat softness it leaves a lot to be desired when you compare it to the 07 Ultra Classic seat. I don't have to have a soft seat to make me happy while I'm riding, (I've rode on a Corbin seat for 6 years prior to getting my new Utra) but my wife thinks it sucks. She likes the heat but say's that the seat looks cheap and not as soft as an 07 and I have to agree with her. It's not a bad seat, it just seems that they could have made it better.

Not sure if you have the Sun Ray. Mine definitely has a low, med., and high setting. When I bought my seat, I also went with the chrome switch housing and the LED lighted switch which shows which setting you're on. I know the older SE Ultras had the Sun Ray but not sure if they changed. Someone else mentioned that the seat sat higher where I found mine to be deeper and more saddle-like. Seems a bit wider also. Seats are like speakers: very subjective. One man's pleasure is another man's pain.
