RE: Road Zeppelin???
Opinions are like ars holes, everybody has one.
Heres mine!
I have been riding on a zep for nine and a half years. First real money I spent on the bike after I purchased it. Our first long 4 day ride was on the stock seat and if we hadn't sent the money on this seat we probably would not have done any more touring.
My wife has a bad back and the cushining in this seat allows here to adjust it for comfort while traveling.
I first purchased the vinyl one and now I have a leather one.

Bought a used one from someone here, loved it - but my portion of the saddle was WAY too wide for the better half's comfort, so I sold it and bought a Corbin. Did a 500-mile day with it w/o a problem.

Was it the backrest portion of the front seat that bothered her?
Was it the width of the backrest?
I am considering this seat when I purchase my touring bike,
Since I married, my wife has gained pounds with the accompanying big ****,
My little Dyna, even with the Wide Mustang Pillion, does not keep her comfortable very long,
Thanks,

BUY IT! It's the bset danged seat ever. Spend the xtra and get leather, it'll make a 400 mile day into a 600 mile day. The only two problems with mine 1. with the detachable tour pack off (on the 03) the removable passengar back rest wouldn't fit and 2. It wouldn't fit the 08 so I had to sell it!

RE: Road Zeppelin???
Thanks for everyone's input, it was very helpful and thanks gmanand NICK56for turning me onto Hales and Chic's HD, for OEM products as well as other aftermarket products, you can't beat these guys prices. Called my local stealer's and they refused to meet or beat their prices!!! They stated they're in business to make money not give things away... After all the money I spent with those local guys, it was really an eye opener[:@][:@][:@]!!! Once again thanks to all of you for the great info!!! "D"

RE: Road Zeppelin???
Hello,
Will the Road Zeppelin fit the 08 touring bikes, specifically the Road Glide?
The Harley catalog states 97 to 07 models, nothing about the bigger tanked 08's,
