Bought 2018 Road King with badlander SEAT
well allready got Danny Gray airhawk weekday XLBut still considering buying yet another saddle with backrest this Time...
I am 6' (182cm) 72 on seam If I remember right
Current options:
Le Pera Maverick ( daddy longlegs)

Any recommendations for those or other saddles
that should consider?

Your local Harley dealer should have optional seats you can try. A problem we all suffer from, especially those of us not in the USA, is ready access to the many brands of alternative parts such as seats. I also have a Corbin touring dual seat, purchased direct, which Mrs B and I are very happy with.
well considering Le Pera RT66 cost in USD 1064$ with taxes
Danny gray weekday airhawk with DBR is 1063$
mustang super deluxe with DBR is 993
fortunately got that danny gray weekday pretty cheap 529$ with taxes and shipping
was wondering price till got it, genuine leather and it was made july 29th 2011 so old stock and price
FYI.
Road kings itself start from 36000$
Street Glide CVO 58500$
so I am pretty much sure that won't like price
what ever I choose...
but darn those C&C looks good, well luckily no hurry, I have time to choose
still maybe 2 months before season starts in here, too much snow and weather temps below freezing...
just have had 20 miles or so test drive at october with my first Harley, made deal
and left bike to shop for winter storage, also heated grips and GPS installation.
now too much time browse web and seek what I might want or "need"

Reason: just adding stuff
If you search the LePera can be bought for less than the 1k + price. That is without leather or gel insert. If, you are going to spend 1k or more, I would go to a custom seat tailored to you, not an off the shelf seat, one size fits all. Suggestions would be a Russell Day Long Seat, Tom Simmons Originals, Seth Lamm to name a few. Expensive but custom made to you . Otherwise you could modify your existing seat or buy a pre made seat . The choices depends on you and how much you want to spend.
