I am looking at a seat that advanblack has for sell its 429.00 and I have seen a video on YouTube the professional monkey he kind of reviews the seat saying it’s a seat that you can handle 6+ hours on is there anyone else here that can confirm of have this seat ? It’s for a 2010 road glide

Seats are kinda like beer, everyone has their own taste. You could ask ten different people to sit on a seat and they would give you 10 different reviews.Your weight, leg length,butt size etc. are all factors. Best bet is to try and demo a seat, on your bike.

I like watching the Professional Monkey vids but remember that he gets all that stuff free and IF he says really nice things about the products, they send him more free stuff. That's not to say that it's not a comfortable seat, just know that he really likes Advanblack sending him stuff.

I don't trust YouTubers that are sponsored by products. Look at how many are sponsored by Ruroc and they recomend that overpriced cheap LOUD helmet. Search for the seat on the iterwebz and see what others are saying. Another thing to consider when looking for reviews when buying a product, is try to find negative reviews as well. Lastly, I am cautious about buying a product that is strictly regulated, i.e. Ruroc again. You can't buy them on Amazon or Revzilla and they have nothing but positive reviews, becasue they remove the negative reviews from their website.

I agree. As someone who just sent back a seat and backrest for $900 I will do my best to test a seat before I buy another one.
