I've been here a while and the common courtesy seems to be price comments of "for sale" items are frowned upon ... Kind of like if you don't have something nice to say don;t say anything ... We all make mistakes and learn from them
J&P price of $739 is heated “without” rider backrest (all out of stock by the way)…. the J&P price for a heated Road Sofa “with” Rider backrest = $962 - $987 + tax and s&h……many of the iterations of the Road Sofa are “out of stock” at J&P
Private party Shipping of large bulky items like 2-up motorcycle seats is expensive these days…..I see the OP is in Delaware, so shipping this seat out of New England will likely be $200 as he noted
Please see attached pics. I was not able to reply prior due to not having enough post. Sorry I am new to the thread. For those stating you can buy this for $739, brand new. Not Happening.. If your interested let me know. I'd rather not ship due to its weight and cost. Seat is in perfect condition, no rips, no stains.

Yep - agreed - I posted previously exactly to that effect. If you get a serious buyer who wants/needs to have the seat shipped, and you have it all packed up in the original box, I have a line on a decent shipping option - send me a private message if you would like more information.
My stock seat has an adjustable backrest. If I replace my seat with your seat w/backrest, does the backrest fit into my current holder - or, do I have to replace my current backrest kit?
Since you added the mustang seat, did you get the one with a backrest - and, did you have to replace your original seat backrest kit?

NO, your stock seat RIDER backrest will NOT work with the Saddlemen Seat. If you were to go this route with the Saddlemen seat with Rider backrest, you would remove your oem seat and all backrest brackets for that as well.
The Saddlemen seat with RIDER backrest, has the rider backrest support built into the seat, so you can remove the rider backrest from the seat and ride without, OR when you remove the seat from the bike, the rider backrest is attached within the seat-pan, and comes off the bike with the seat (exactly like many Mustang and other seat configurations) - there is no added bracket for the rider backrest under the Saddlemen seat attached to the bike, like there is with an oem seat and rider backrest setup.
(I have the un-heated version of the same Saddlemen Lattice Stitched 2-up Seat with Rider backrest)

Thank you so much for this information - will really help me male my decision.
Our riding season is almost over - so, will do this while the bike is parked in the garage over the winter. Hopefully, you like your Saddleman seat. Did you change the passenger backrest to make it match or does it look OK this way?
