Default Seat Stitching

New Ultra, 1600 mi on it and the stitching in the seat is pulling apart. Anyone else have this problem? Just thought it was odd that it has happened to me again, my 11 CVO RG had the same story and HD replaced it......and no I am not 300#s, a mere 150# - so thats not it!

I'd be sure to let the dealer put a new seat on for you soon

The CVO seats did have an issue with the seams coming apart. I have never heard of anyone having problems with any of the other HD seats before.
