Default new seat

well, the wife finally decided on what seat she wanted on her road king. after careful and deliberate scrutiny, she went with a c&c seat, the fastback style (she likes the lumbar support the fastback gives). we had ordered it a couple of weeks ago, but when it came in there was a small error. the stitching was in chopper blue, not copenhagen blue as we ordered. no problem, the guys at c&c seats called ups and had them come pick up the old seat, in the meantime, they had started work on the new one. i know mistakes are gonna be made, no one is perfect. but the measure of a company is how they handle those mistakes. c&c were great. i would have no problem recommending them to anyone looking for a good high quality seat.

now if we could just get in a long ride to test it out......

I'm in the market for a flamed seat. That one looks very nice. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?

with shipping it was 418.00. the seat is leather, so it runs more. you can get it in all vinyl also for less, but we prefer leather. you can see the different styles, stitching, colors, etc at c&c seats website. www.harleyseats.net
