saddleman nightmares!!
ordered a king model for my standard and the stitching and frame must have been the worst craftsmanship ever.
I sent it back thinking I received a bad seat. So today I went to pick up the replacement and it was just as bad!
I gave up with saddleman and ordered a lepera. Don't know if anyone else has dealt with them but I would stay away.

I have a Saddlemen Rogue on my Deuce. I love it and it still looks great with 15K miles on it! I think that every seat manufacture has it's quality control problems. I would try again. Speak with a human and see what they will do for you. Good luck!

I had Saddleman saddlebags and they fell apart in less than a year (normal use - actually hardly used at all).
As far as seats, my Mustangs have held up very well and they are a quality item.

Just got my Mustang wide solo for my Heritage yesterday, top quality. Fits better than the stock seat. Was a tossup between that and the Saddleman, looks like I made the right choise after seeing this post.

RE: saddleman nightmares!!
I've got the LePera Bare Bones on my standard - been using it for almost 2 years now and nothing but good things to say about it. Got some saddleman detachables for the same bike, and they appear to be pretty stout w/ excellent craftsmanship. Had them about 2 months, so may be too early to tell yet..............
