I had my seat on my 2011 done, not a 14 but a seat is a seat. I find their work fantastic.
Best mod I did. Talent is talent, and I'm sure it isn't restricted to a model year. Alan and the boy's are good! Drop him a email, you won't be sorry.

I had them mod my 13 SG seat with memory foam and a tailbone relief channel on their recommendation. I am sending it back this winter for a gel insert. I had inquired about the gel but they didn't think I'd need it. I hope this mod fixes the issue and I hope this helps.

I just had the seat for my 2014 Street Glide modified by Mean City Cycles. I have not had a chance to take a long ride yet but I am very happy with the modifications on the short rides I have taken around town.

They did the super narrow modification which moved me forward a bit and down a bit. I also had them seal the seams on the seat for better waterproofing. I am quite pleased with the work they did and they were right on schedule. They worked on the seat on a Weds and I had the seat back on Friday and I am in Florida.
