Re: Seat

I have a seating issue. I am curently using an original 1999 xlh883 custom seat. My lovely wife tells me that the pillion seat need more padding and should be considerably wider. Anyone any ideas what I should get to help her sore ass on long rides? I have thought of changing it for a smaller model, but I think the wife would object.LOL
Cheers
Mick

Re: Seat

I've got a Harley seat part no 52073-978, it's expensive but well worth it for comfort. I was lucky and got mine cheap. Would certainly recommend it.

Harley does a 'Sundowner' that will fit the bill. It is pretty easy to swap seats, so you can have a real one for your lovely wife (poor woman) plus a skinny one for when you want to strut your stuff - alone!

Re: Seat

If you need a seat to be more comfortable or a new design then contact Tealess, or look at our website Tealess's Trim Shop we also advertise in the Harleyquin
