I like the seat and have no problem spending the day on it. My wife would not have another seat.The only problem is the ride height,I am 5"11 and can just get my feet flat on the ground.

got my leather one fromHales HD cheaper than what a vynal one would cost elsewhere. Great seat. Really great on the long rides. ability to adjust the rider or passenger seat while on the road is a big plus.As mentioned, it does raise you up a bit. I'm 5'9" and if you were much shorter the seat would be a challenge to reach the ground with your feet. I'd buy it again.

I got one here on the forum. Being able to adjust the seat on the fly is a big plus. As already mentioned it does raise you up about an inch and its wider than stock. Having one now makes me wish I had bought one when they first came out.
