Default 1925 Seat on the Bones?
I'm thinking of trying the basic 1925 style seat on my Bones. Has anyone here got one and if so, what do you think of it?

Sounds like a covered tractor seat?

I installed a WLA version on my bike and it's just as comfortable as the stocker...with less padding. Also, the shape of it keeps you from sliding back.

This is the 1925 style (Army rivets in the side)



This is the 1947 accessory seat



Both are very comfortable. Better for us tall guys than the stocker.

I'll have to take some...I don't have any currently, the seat has only been on a couple months.

Looks like someone posted a pic of it installed above...though mine is not as light brown as that.

Harley sells a standard seat just like this (without the rivets) in black. It's the standard solo. Yes, Both are bolt on...no modification needed.
