Default Ultimate Seats

About to replace my stock seat on my 07 RK and was just curious about Ultimate seats. I've got a friend that swears by them but wanted a few opinions before I buy.

Anyone?

I had them on another bike,comfortable but if rained on water will seep through the seams becaused they are not sealed.The owner sells seat covers made out of Frog Toggs material.I found it a hassel messing with the rain covers.Now that I think about it I still have the covers but traded the bike a year ago.

Had one a a previous bike. VERY well made & Very Comfy, BUT they are not waterproof without the slip on cover. Great seat overall.

you may try calling them, my buddy and I went to their showroom and they have trial/experimental seats in their store. They had an ostrich covered one pretty close to my buddies bike color and it was around 200 dollars less than their regular price and was actually a really cool seat. They had four different kinds when we went in there. Might not get as lucky but with something that cost that much every little bit helps.

My buddy swears by his, but after spending that much I think you'd have to say it was great no matter what to stop yourself from bashing your head into a wall.

Hi, I stopped in their Florida store 2 weeks ago. They said they would install the seat on my Ultra and let me try it for 3 to 4 hours if I wanted. I didn't have time. Also said I could order one and if I didn't like it, I could send it back, if undamaged. You probably would have to pay return shipping. Ryan

Hey there shop is right around the corner from my house. Have heard lots of good about them and friends know the owner. Still trying to make it over there to the showroom. Too many Bikini;s to look at and so little time.

My buddy has one on his Yahama and really likes it. You might want to look at the Russell Day Long as well, I got one last month and it's by far the most comfortable seat I've ever had, and I've tried most of them.
