Hey HDF,
I'm looking to change the stock seat from my 2012 883 iron. Ideally. I'd like to have a 2-person brown leather seat. With my online research I've found that 2-person seats are available but passenger pillions or "pillows" are also available. I imagine finding a one piece 2-person seat in some sort of cafe racer style. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations of any custom seat makers or just any high-quality brands in general. Trying to avoid the usual HD options and it's hard to find stuff in brown. Thanks!

Check out Corbin - they have a great selection of genuine leathers in pretty much any color and style you are looking for. My only caveat would be that they are known for less than user friendly customer service if there is a problem with their quality control. I've ordered two seats from them and had a topnotch experience with one and had to involve my credit card company to initiate a dispute with the second.

I went through that search last year with no luck, I tried a mustang daytripper but found it no more comfortable, if not less than the stock custom seat, even after having it redone by mean city cycles it was not good enough, (they can only do so much with the small seat pan and cover). I have thought about finding someone to put brown on my mustang wide nostalgic seat (very comfy). But having spending on stage one.
