I went with a La Rosa Spring seat. Best investment I made. I have a bad back and this has helped a lot!!!!

I have the HD spring seat and contrary to what everyone else on here thinks, I think it made a world of difference and it looks awesome.

Hmmm, I was about to inquire about a spring seat until I came across this post.. Hmm, what about those "Spring Seats" being sold on eBay?

Suggestions would be good.. Thanks

can you post a link to the one you bought? I was looking at them but I want to make sure I get the right one that fits, I have a 06 883L, did you have to modify their kit at all or did it fit?

I just ordered a Drag specialities spring seat, was a bit cheaper from JP cycles, the only thing it doesn't have is the frame cover but I thought I wanna see if I like a spring seat before I go spending $600 or so on one that has all the covers and custom tooling on the seat.

You could also check out Rich Phillips seats. If you choose to go that route the memory foam option is def worth the extra $$
