I like the looks on my Electra Glide, lean and sleek but very uncomfortable on longer rides. I put my stock seat on when I am doing anything over 200 miles. If it is comfort you want, do not buy the badlander.
i got one off my 2007 night train. . . .up fer sale. . . . . got me a mustang solo w a wide passenger fer the gal pal. . .she love me long time now. . . . .
I think the Badlander is the best looking seat around.I can understand a passenger not being comfortable on long rides,but it feels fine to me.
The stock Badlander seats on the '07's are Vinyl not leather - the leather HDBadlander seat is available for about $ 225 in the catalogue.I perfer leather as a material more than vinyland might buythe leather versioneven though I like the stock seat well enough.Lepera and Corbin make quality Badlander style seats,might be worth giving them a look.

Got one that was a display for $43 at the dealer. Put it on the EG with a quick disconnect tour pak and it looks great. If I had paid the $125 at the dealer (list price) I would have been disapointed. It has to be the most unconfortable seat I've sat on since I rode home on leave from Kansas on my BSA Victor 750 miles. I can do 100 -150 miles before taking a butt break.
