Default Saddleman seats

I've been looking for a new seat for my Heritage. I like the looks of the Saddleman but was wondering what is the saddlehyde like? Is it a cloth or does it look like leather. I can't really tell from the pics on the web site. Anyone have one that can tell me? Thanks

I have a Saddlemen seat. The saddlehyde looks and feels like regular naugahyde. It gives more than leather and wears better. I have the Rogue with the saddlegel on my Deuce. It is a great seat! I love it.

Thanks for the info. Now I just need to decide between the saddlehyde or if the leather is worth the extra $150.

Not sure what saddlemen seat your looking at but I bought mine at denniskirk.com. The difference between the saddlehyde and leather was only about $30.

I have the Saddleman Road sofa with the Gel rider and passenger on my Ultra. I bought it while at Daytona bike week this year. I paid $608.00 got the saddlehyde seat with rider back rest and the tourpac rest installed. I then walked my H-D seat over to the UPS trailer and mailed it home.

As far as leather, well I've had leather and really like leather better, until it rains and found that I sat in wet long after it stopped raining.

Bottom line, buy what you like best.

I'm looking at the Explorer Classic w/ backrest. They quoted me $399 and an extra 150 for leather.
