I had one for a while I really liked it. It sat me up a bit higher than I wanted. I am thinking about trying the new version which is supposed to sit you lower.

I have two of them. One came on my 2009 CVO Ultra which now has 18,500 miles in the past year and numerous back to back 400-500 mile days. Most comfortable seat I've ever had in over 1/2 million miles of riding so I bought one for my 2010 Road King within a couple of weeks of buying it. One note is that it does not provide much back support without a backrest. If you get one I highly recommend a backrest. It also sits you a little further back from the handlebars and is pretty wide. I'm 6' 2" tall. You may not care for the height and width if you are under 5'8" or so.

I have one on my bike and love it. Just returned from an 8K mile ride from NY to CA and back and it is a great seat.

Love it over the Road Zeppelin I've had on other Ultra's. Great seat for long distance riding.

I'd love to get one, but I'm afraid that after the $$$ it might not do the trick. Too bad there is no waranty. Better than the Zep huh?? Go figure.
