Default Any Difference in the 3 low profile CVO style solo Seats? Any Reviews?

Looking for a solo seat, and I am looking at several brands, but really like the looks of these 3 HD seats. Other than color, stitching and price, are these 3 th exact same seat?

I do like the brown, but not sure how that would look with all my blacked out stuff. Anyone have any pics of any of these on your rides?

Any reviews along with how long you have had it will be really helpful too.

Since no one replied, I ordered the black one with the diamond stitching. I guess I will see how it goes.

I read over the reviews from the H-D page, and outside of 1 or 2, most seam pretty happy with the seat.

I opted for the stitch over the smooth due to reviews of foam sticking out of the back and the bolts not being covered. No complaints like that for this one, so it was the winner. Also ordered the black seat nuts, and got my wife a set of bag organizers.

The more and more I looked at the pics on the webpage, I decided I like the black better.

i will check back here with a review once it comes in.

I will I’ll keep my mustang for when the TP goes on, and for those rare days I have a passenger.

Nice I've been thinking about getting one of these seats to. Do take the time to update what you think I am interested.

I have the 2018 CVO seat on my 2019 Scorched Orange/Black Denim to match the bike. I sent the seat out to Seth Troutner, in New Mexico to add a custom backrest and a gel pad. Couldn’t be happier!

Nice! I want to make sure the seat works for me, if it does, I’m planning on getting a backrest from cvobackrest.com. May want to find out what you did, is it built into the seat? What kind of cost?

I got one with diamond stitching, for me, it's the most comfortable seat I have ever owned.

I've got the same seat on my SG. It's the most comfortable solo seat I've found.
I've tried Mustang and C&C solo seats and they were both hard and uncomfortable.
I can easily put over 300 miles a day on this seat with no problems.

I will sit you down and back about 1 inch.
