Default badlander seat opinions

Anyone out there running a badlander seat on a streetglide? 06 model. I am thinking of trying one. They look cool enough.

My ex ran one on an '06 Road King and loved it.

I also am running one on my Xbones and have no complaints.

Runnin it on my 2009 RG and love it. It dropped me down a bit from the SERG seat I had on. I like riding it when I strip the bike down (no tour pak, etc.)

I've got one on an '09 FLHX. IMHO, it not only looks good,it's also very comfortable. Much more so than the C&C I sold.

The RK's look soooo much better with that seat! I will say it sucks if your picked up for a blind date and he leaves the Badlander on....His reasoning was if I was fat and ugly I would fall off. If I looked good I would hug up closer

You did 15 mins better than me so I modified mine and love it. Have done over 600 miles a day on it before....they do look sexy but passengers dont like them as tittiesontwo stated.

I had one for 15,xxx miles on my street glide and loved it because that was all I knew then I bought a touring style seat and couldn't go back. It's the best 30 mile seat on the market but I don't see how I used to do 500+ mile days on it.
