i like mine it is stock on the night train. ol lady says it is ok but could be a little more foam for passenger. we have done a few 700 mile weekends with no real problems.
I picked up a leather one couple yrs ago off ebay. They look nice but hard as a rock and harder than stock IMO. Sold it on ebay and snagged a Mustang and I like it.
I have a badlander to get around during the week or when I'm 1 up on the weekend and I don't mind it, I'm 255lbs and 5'10' so it's a good height for me and the padding is fine.
I change the stock seat back for when my wife is on as she will only do a short hop (20 Mins) on the badlander - not much padding for passenger, it is like sitting on a rolled up towel.
It does change the whole look of the bike which is why I like it.

They look great, but they suck for anything longer than 30 minutes. My wife got on and wouldn't ride 2 miles down the road. So , I will be getting a sundowner or something soon.
I posted in another thread, I reguarly make a 140 mile one way trip to my parents in Tn and I feel like I have been 10 rounds with Mike Tyson when I get there.
