Default I Hate Seat Threads But..

Not asking necessarily for comfort advice, just can't find sufficient threads/pictures on the seats I'm looking at for my dyna.

Le Pera Sprocket -not even on the Le Pera website but it's for sale on DeadBeat, Get Lowered, Revzilla, etc. Need a picture or two of one on a bike!

Saddlemen Renegade Solo LS -again, no pics on a bike. I even emailed Saddlemen requesting one, no response thus far

Roland Sands Bob Job Boss -I actually Can find pics of this one. Looking for opinions, I really like the exposed tank bolts. Any similar seats to this one other than the solo Biltwell makes?

I'm looking for rad, solo, double diamond or tuck n roll seats so no interest in comfy ones like the wide mustang etc.

I apologize for another mind numbing seat thread.

I have the 2-up version of the RSD seat you are looking at. It is my third daily seat that I have tried and doubt I will ever change from it. It is narrow and shallow but sits far back as well. Good for people who like to elongate their sitting position or have mid controls and have issues getting both feet on the ground. Also pretty decent back support for such a small seat. It is comfortable enough for daily riding and great if you don't like your knees flopping too far from the tank.

My Harley shop has a boat load of demo seats you can check out and install for a few days to see how you like it... Not sure if yours does or not.

Have you tired a Lowrider S stock seat? I found mine was really comfortable (even did 3000 miles on a trip) but also looked awesome. You could probably pick one up for $100 and have it recovered with the stitching look you're going for pretty easily.

That's a good looking seat.

Thanks for the replies.

No doubt if I was going for a 2 up seat, it would be the Saddlemen Stepup. That's my favorite high backed seat, it beats Lucky Daves, BMC & Le Pera in my opinion.

But I'm really leaning towards the solo, double diamond seat on my Dyna. I'm a bigger guy, 6'3" so I like leg room too. Wish I could get a pic of the Saddlemen Renegade on a Dyna. Finally got an email back from them, they have a pic of one on a breakout and one on a Road Glide. No Dyna.

I've thought about picking up a stock solo for a little less cash, but that's not quite as "cool".... lol
My closest dealer is 100 miles away and I think they only stock HD seats?

The breakout may be about as close a view as you want to see unless someone pops up with an actual pic.

Don't think you'll find a better seat, quality is second to none. JMO.
