A Seat Question

I have a 2006 Heratage softail andI'm thinking about buying a Badlander seat but was wondering what others that have one think of them. My stock seat hurts my a** and lower back after a hundred or so miles and was wondering if this was any better.

The badlander was the first thing to go on my night train, looked good, but very uncomfortable. I use a mustang seat now for long distances or rideing with the wife, and a HD sidekick seat that matches the paint set when I want it just for looks.

The Heritage seat is actually very nice IMO.
You'll have to spend a few bucks to make an improvement here - like a Mustang Wide....

Badlander - good for about 50 miles. After that the frame rails will start eating into your *** cheeks

RE: A Seat Question

Try modifying your current seat. Take it to an upholstery shop. It's cheaper than buying a new one and it's customized to your liking. There are several sponsers here that customize seats.
