I just ordered a Saddlemen Front & Rear LS-Step Up with blue cross stitching for my Fat Boy 114, Anniversary model. This will be my first Saddlemen seat as I've previously stuck with Harley or Corbin. The gel insert on the Step-up, and the fact that it moved me forward about an inch, were the main factors that influenced my final decision.

I'd love to see a picture of that once you get it on the bike.

I'll post photos as soon as I get the seat. Since it is a custom order it'll take some time to get into my hot little hands!
