Has anyone compared this set up against a HD Hammock seat? I have a Hammock Seat but have been able to ride since I got the bike due to working in another state.

also, how does she like your backrest bouncing around in front of her? I may get one some day...
She missed the handles, that's why she got the strap.....LOL, that just doesn't sound right does it.

Never said a word about the backrest bouncing, never thought of that. If you don't tell her, neither will I

That looks really good. I'm looking for that exact set up to throw on my bike. Where can i start my search, besides Ebay?

Only thing I'm not happy with, I called Mustang to confirm that their seat pattern matched the new HD Police solo pattern. They said yes, but they were wrong, it's the old basket weave pattern. Keeping it as I think it looks better than the smooth vinyl.

Any suggestions for a passenger grab rail, the stock HD won't work, so I put the strap back on.

OK I like the idea. Here's my dilemma, I have a ton of wires under the seat. Can you add a nice skirt that won't look stupid? Also are there different heights? I'm 6' with a 32 inseam, thinking a guy 6'6" needs a little more then me.

Has anyone who is running the police seat also run a mustang solo seat. I had a mustang on my RK and loved it now I'm trying to decide what to put on my 15 SGS

If you buy the entire kit, it comes with a plastic cover that goes from the tank to the two studs behind the seat. you can barely see it in my photos. You will not see the wiring, only the overflow hoses from the tank at the front.

HD did sell a cover for that area, but it's not available for the new style. Some members have fabricated their own cover from floor mats.

My wife doesn't like the Mustang Passenger seat....she says it's too hard.

Any ideas on how to remedy this, besides leaving the seat OFF and leaving her at home?

We are considering the air thingy from Harley...
