Harley's touring seat
Anyone have one? I just ordered one today so I guess I'm asking a little late. My wife decided recently that she doesn't wanna ride her own bike so we're selling it and I'm getting one of those Harley touring seats. I don't really like how it looks, but it does look really comfortable. The main section of it is 15" wide and the passenger pillion is 12" wide. Who's got one who wants to tell me I just made a good or bad choice? Thanks.

We sold the wifes bike 2 years ago. She hated the stock seat on the dyna and said it hurt. I have had the touring seat for 2 months now and of course she hasn't been on it once. For my part though, it is much more comfortable for me. I can live with the looks.

I have a Reach Seat with only five months of use. Loved it, but I traded my EG. PM me if you're interested.

I bought the touring seat because it was not as wide as the sundowner.I think its quit comfortable. It looks like the sundowner . I think your wife will like it. I have the wide passenger back rest , she"ll be happy.

I use the touring seat on my Fat Bob most of the time.
Wife just couldn't handle the stock seat at all.
She can take 300 mile rides now without any issues at all.
Note: You might want to put some type of protective covering on your fender, as this seat will leave rub marks.
You won't see them until you take the seat off and go back to the stock seat. Then you'll notice it.
