How does the Sundowner Deep Bucket Seat for Electra Glide Models
compare to the stock Comfort Stitch? Is it worth the money? $325.00
I have a Road Glide seat to clean things up for short runs.
But what about the long haul?
Oh Yeah, 05 Ultra.

Thanks

Didn't find anything comfortable about the the Comfort Stitch on my '07 Ultra. Dumped it in favor of a Sundowner and my buns have been happy ever since.

Absolutely worth it in my book.

If you ride two up, unless your passenger is a real lightweight, better check out different options. For some damn reason, HD makes the driver portion better but really cuts down on the passenger portion's support and size. It is much narrower and thinner than the stock seat passenger section and slopes backwards. My wife looked at it and said no way.
