Yes, got it today. My bike is torn apart because I'm replacing stock bars w/some KW +2's so I haven't ridden it. They did put a 5" long scratch in the material though. Hopefully it will wear away from my jeans rubbing on it during riding. It's the stock seat but was removed when purchased & only had about 350-400 miles on it so it WAS in perfect condition. It appears there's very little padding in it(did the 1.5" lower mod). You can definitely tell where the original padding stops & the memory foam begins. So far I'm not impressed w/MCC. BUT I'm anxious to try it out. Have to wait till my bars, clutch cable & tranny gasket get here though.

So let me see if I can understand. You have a problem paying $170 +or- to have a seat you already own modified to your exact size and ride style but have no problem paying $400-600 for a generic seat one size fits all. I had my Road King seat done by them and could not be happier with the results.Great people to deal with and will stand by their product.

I ended up shipping it on the 5th & still waiting to get it back! I knew the $25 deposit was non refundable. So. Ended up costing me $156 total. It's not that I was being cheap but I was trying to make sure I wasn't throwing MORE good money @ bad. Like 12hdrk said, I didn't want to invest $150-$175 in a cheap *** stock seat then decide I really needed an aftermarket one after all! It should be here tomorrow, was supposed to be here Friday(wasted another weekend!). I'll let y'all know if it's all it's cracked up to be. Have a feeling it'll still feel cheap but we shall see.

In his subsequent post, he reports that his bike is torn apart, and he's still waiting or handlebars, etc. to finish an install.
How he "wasted a week-end" because he waited from Friday to Monday to get the seat back from MCC is lost on me. Takes 10 minutes or so to install a seat.
