Default Harley's Hammock seat.

Who has tried the harley hammock seat and what did or do you think? I'm thinking of picking one up for some long distance rides.

I have one on my 2011 FLHTK and its pretty good. I am 6'4" and was looking for something to move me back. The Tallboy seat was really firm, while the Hammock seat provides a lot more cushion, IMO. It also sits you higher 1-2". Not sure it was worth the money though, jury is still out. Good luck.

This is my second year of riding with it and just came back from a 4700 mile trip and both me and the wife love it. We have put lots of miles on it and we both enjoy the comfort. I came from the air seat on my 07 and this is much more comfortable on the longer journeys....

3300 miles roundtrip last year to Sturgis and back. My wife who can be very high maintenance didn't once complain.

Bobzilla,

Looks like yours is the CVO heated model which I have been thinking of ordering for my 2011 RGU. If you have tried the heat especially for the passenger does it work well? My wife is always cold! And; if yours is the CVO version does it have leather seating surfaces or is it just like the regular Hammock seat?

The wife and I both enjoy the heated seats and it is the leather
