Let's say that I'm really looking for a break after 2 hours on it; it's comparable with the stock seat of the Softail Standard, which I mount for short two-up rides.

In case of longer trips, I put the stock fxstc seat back on, which is probably one of the most comfortable seats you can find for a Softail.

As to compare with one more other seat: it's certainly more comfy than a Badlander, which i had on my Dyna.

It sho' dosent take much imagination to realize that the mad scientists at Honda Moco took direct aim at the Rocker when penning out the new Fury.

Imitation is a high form of flattery!

I read somewhere that the fatboy styling is the most copied of all time.

I think he ruined a really good Nightrain......they look better stock than that bike looks....in my humble opinion. Everyone likes different stuff though.

The mods aren't worth crap.......25 cents on the dollar AT BEST. More like .05 cents on the dollar in most cases.

Why do you feel the need to dog pile?

The guy that started this thread (jkeeton81) has already posted that he found him a Train.

I agree, Hammer. I think you can over do it with dark/blacked out look sometimes. This is a perfect example of that.

But again, to each their own.

Amen to that Brother. Not all black is good Black!

That bike is overboard and dosent look 21.5K good IMO.

Especially when I look at my old 05' "Beater" with a stage 3 motor and some other simple mods that I have all of 15K if that investered in?
