I like mine............I switch back and forth between the springs and no springs, depending on how I plan to use the bike for the day.

I love the seat . I have seen them on dyna's and they are really cool. I do think HD screwed the pooch by charging for the seat and the mounting springs too however . Not sure what is up with that . Pretty steep price for the seat when all is included. (spring kit and seat separate). If they had been less greedy I would have gladly given them 300 bucks for the whole setup. 500? I could get a custom corbin with a snakeskin print leather cover for that .

I just went to the west eagle site and they directed you to the custom chrome website. Looks like they are indeed closing down.

Man, I'm thinking that would look sharp on my '07 Low Rider! Have been thinking about a solo saddle anyway and I love the retro look. Those of you who have this, how comfortable is it? I don't usually do more than a couple hundred miles a day. Thanks!
