Default Sheepskin

Was thinking of getting the HD sheepskin cover to go over stock junk EGUC seat.
Anybody have one? Does it give comfort?
Thanks

I've heard good things about these guys. There are some reviews if you do a search.

I bought a H-D sheepskin back in 2000 for my 01' Ultra and it was fantastic! I could ride forever with it on so would never have to buy another seat again. Then last year I traded that bike in for my 06' Screamin Eagle Ultra and kept the sheepskin which was a very smart choice because this new seat is nice to look at but much too hard for any lengthy ride. I put the sheepskin on it for a trip last fall and rode 928 miles in one day, could have kept going but I was home! I highly recommend the H-D sheepskin and it comes with a rain cover too ( a lot of riders have asked me about that rain cover).

It does not matter who you buy it from (although I try to NOT patronize HD's overpriced accessories), your *** will thank you. I use mine (purchased from a Sturgis vendor 15 years ago) on every trip over 400 miles.

+1 on Alaska Leather. I just posted a thread on this very recent. Only thing they didn't have was the cover for the tourpak back and arm rest. Ordered that from the local HD dealer and when it came in, it had a "Mustang" sticker in the inside of it if that means anything to you. But man, the sheepskin is great, especially in the hot weather.

+2 on alaskaleather I bought one and it is easily in the top 5 things I have bought for the bike. My wife likes it so much she bought her own for her buell.

+3 for alaskaleather. Probably the best company I have ever dealt with. Have purchased 5 pads from them. Very fast service, excellant product.
