Touring Seat

HI
Looking for some advice, have been touring for a while on my own (well with some mates) but wife wants to come now. Have badlander seat which I have no problem with but wife finds it uncomfortable (can't see why).

Do you have any advise on the type of touring seat, best place to buy, any advise would be grateful.

Re: Touring Seat

H-D do the Deluxe Touring seat. I had one when I owned a sporty. It was VERY comfortable and VERY VERY expensive. The only downside apart from the cost is that it makes the bike look like a Chesterfield sofa on wheels

Re: Touring Seat

I got a HD touring seat part no 52073-978 it was expensive although I got it cheap from an indie who just wanted to cover his costs as the guy who ordered it went bankrupt. I find extremly comfortable and have ridden to Dover and to Dundee from Nottingham only stopping for petrol. Pillion passengers haven't complained either.
