I had a '14 Limited and really did not like the stock seat. Caused butt burn in less than a 100 miles each time I rode it. Kept putting off buying a seat as I couldn't make up my mind. It slowly started to get better but not until I had about 6000 miles on it. I know that's a long break in period but if you aren't prepared to buy or modify give it some time and miles.
Now having said that, I traded that bike for a cvo Roadglide ultra with the heated hammock seat. That thing is nice right out of the box, no break in time needed.
Anyone else tried Meancitycyles modded seats that would care to chime in? Looks like mostly positive comments on their website, but really don't expect anyone to allow the negative feedback on their site.....
The Zepplin Air Ride http://www.harley-davidson.com/store...djustable-seat This seat is **** ****... Awesome comfort I tried the Hammock and it cut lines in my butt on the outside edges of the strap inside the seat. I hated the stock seat. Could not do more than an hour in it.

That zep seat does not fit the 14 up touring with tour pak, from what I read??
The CVO Hammock has a little more padding than the regular Hammock. Plus it looks sweet.

They do fit the Rushmores you just need to buy the harness so that you can hook up the power for the compressor. We are going to test drive one in April when we can get an all day ride in.

I'm riding a 14 CVO Limited. I went to the dealer and got them to let me bolt one up to see if it fit. It sez it fit's the 14 Trike but not the Bagger... It bolts up just fine but on the left side the corner of the Bag bumps the seat when you open or close it. I use my hand to push the plastic behind the seat controls in every time and it's no big deal. But it bumps the seat otherwise and that is the reason they say it won't fit... But the Comfort is out of this world... Me and the wife went from Houson to the Tail of the Dragon last summer and it was heaven on my Butt... The back seat has air bags in it also and she won't ride on any other seat anymore... I absolutely loathed the stock seat... Could not do more than an hour on it... I tried the hammock and took it back the next day. It has some sort of strap ie hammock on the inside and the outside edges cut lines in my butt... Anybody buying a new bike should make them give you a different seat before you drive it out.
