Default Saddlemen Dominator

Hey Guys, been looking for a solo seat for my street glide that looks good and is comfortable for long rides. The stock seat burns my azz after about 100 miles.
Saw this seat on a street glide at the dealer and asked to demo it but parts guy said no way so I walked. It does look cool on the bike. I sat on it and it felt ok but what can ya tell from that without riding on it for a couple hundred miles.
Anybody have or try this seat?

We are allowed to have as many seats as we like! I recommend you consider getting a plush comfy seat for longer trips and keep your stock seat for short rides, when comfort is less important. Also call into the Touring section, where you should meet more fellow SG owners, who may have solved the same problem.

This comment doesn't help you out at all torchmaster, but i smiled when I saw GR's comment...I have without exaggeration, at least 25 seats (Nah,there's more call me a "Harley Hoarder"). At least half are hanging from a rod mounted to the ceiling, each covered by a dry cleaning bag

Carry on

I'm just suggesting that T finds himself a comfy seat and keeps his stock good looking one, rather than try to find that needle in a haystack - a stylish comfy seat, which may not exist!
