I have the fxcw seat on my Rocker C. I was wondering if anyone has gone from the fxcw seat to a Danny Gray seat on their Rocker and if you could tell a difference in the comfort and ride?

I went from a Rocker C seat, to a Rocker seat, to a Danny Gray seat. I like to looks and feel of the Danny Gray but for the money, I would not do it again. In fact, I have a brand new Danny Gray wide seat for a 2010 Fat Boy with 60 miles on it, that I'll probably be selling. Wife's bike. She didn't like it.

I really like my fxcw seat, but I really like the look of the Danny Grey seat. I'm just not sure I want to spend $350.00 just because it looks better, but if it is as comfortable as my fxcw seat I would buy it.

I have a 2008 Rocker C and own both a FXCW seat and a Danny Gray seat with "gel" (viscolastic dry polymer). I rode 932 miles in one day on the Danny Gray and would not have made it on the FXCW seat. However, the FXCW seat is much more comfortable than the FXCWC seat.

+1 on Danny Gray. Looks and comfort are worth the money.

Thanks Dragonslayer, I'll have to check to make sure the one I'm looking at has gel.

I bought my Danny Gray for my Rocker off Ebay, Hybridhapa. It was around $225 plus shipping with gel insert, no stitching, which is exactly what I wanted and I am very happy with it.

+1 with Jaxx. Brought my DG seat off the same guy.....gel and flame stitching. Well worth the money IMO.
