Default Sportster Stock Seats?

How fast did you swap out your stock seat for something else? And which one did you get? Thanks.

Well, with Harley seats in general... I have thought about changing the one on this Dyna, especially after a long ride when I try to get loose from it. Just a few more miles and the bike would begin to dissappear up my ***. Woops, sorry...

True though.

Haven't yet and haven't really thought about it. So far it's comfortable enough but I haven't done any touring on it yet either. We'll see.
