Default Ultimate seats???

Anyone ever heard or used them? Went to there store today and looked at a few seats but wasn't crazy about them. What's your take on them?

Had one on a Honda VTX. Loved the comfort of the seat, could ride for hours with no discomfort. I liked the look of the drivers seat but the passengers seat was kinda fugly. My wife loved it. Seat wants me to put one on my Streetglide but I said no way. It ruins the lines of the bike. But if your more concerned about comfort than looks you cannot beat the Ultimate seats

Had one on 05 VTX. Great seat, with riders backrest. Wife loved the comfort, but complained that she sat too high. Very pricey. Never saw one on a dresser. I'll have to check out their website.

Like Rammer I had one on a VTX, much better than the stock Honda seat, they're very expensive too..

BUT BUT wasn't as comfortable as my STOCK seat on my 11 URG. The Harley stock seat design take presure of your tail bone with the hole in the touring seats. Or at least that works for me. I've seen a lot of good comments on the Harley Hammock seat. Sat on one at the dealer and did feel comfortable.

I had one my VTX as well. It was a very comfortable seat. I always had a bad case of but burn after about 40 miles of straight riding on the stock seat. It might not be as pretty as other seats, but she's is comfortable.

I had the four piece Ultimate set on my Valkyrie.They are comfortable but very expensive for vinyl.The owner of the company says you need to buy his seat covers otherwise water will go through the seams if they are left out in the rain.I don't think I will buy them again.

Plenty of responses from metric owners. Just be happy with a Mustang. Many miles and no sore butt. Great seat especially if you can find one at a bargain or in the classifieds section.
