i got mine from zanotti's for less than $200. if you have the drag part number, you can order it at discount. if you don't have the drag spec part number, call danny gray, thats where i got the number from.
dg customer service is top notch. i originally thought i wanted the big seat. but after talking with them, the speed cradle actually fit the bill for what i wanted. the big seat moves you back, and being short already, that was not what i needed/wanted.
What pillion goes with the speed cradle? I looked on the DG site and there is no matching pillion for the speed cradle, but there is one for the other solo models. Anybody have any pics of the peed cradle with a pillion pad?
Anyone have this on their street glide? I need a narrow seat that will lower me...i sent the stock seat to mean city cycles but got it back and it's still too wide.
Mean City did mine in Dec. and have just been able to ride (weather) and like you my seat is still too wide, comfortable but i wanted lower and not so much for the comfort.
Too much $ to ship it back for correction so i will live with it until.....
I just got my hands on a 2008 road glide stock seat. It's alot narrower than the 2010 stock seat. But still needs to be shaved down. So now I have to decide between that seat and the Danny gray

My wife has both of these seats for her 09 SG. She's only 5'6" and uses the 08 RG seat. Now the Speed Cradle just sits on the shelf. It's a hard seat ya know, and it takes quite a long time to break it in.
Actually, I have two 08 RG seats, a 09+ Sundowner, an 07 and below Sundowner, an 09 Ultra seat, a Danny Gray Big Seat and a Danny Gray Speed Cradle. Of all those 2-300 dollar seats, the 100 buck Ebay 08 RG seats sit on our bikes.
Ya the 08 road glide seat is nice...but Im torn between the looks. I like the sleepless of the dg speed cradle....as opposed to the bulkiness of the stick seat
For me, it was a no brainer. I wanted a SOLO seat that would set me down and slightly forward and the DG did the job and gave me exactly what I wanted.
What pillion goes with the speed cradle? I looked on the DG site and there is no matching pillion for the speed cradle, but there is one for the other solo models. Anybody have any pics of the peed cradle with a pillion pad?
Not on my bike right now but will try to post a pic soon.
I too couldn't find the matching pillion online so I emailed Danny Gray and they told me they did have one that matched, sent pics of an unfinished pillion to show how it fit the back of the Speed Cradle.
