Default Touring HD Badlander seat input ?

Ok looks like HD has the bandlander seat and I really like the looks of it. At the moment I have the tallboy seat and after about 6 months I can tell you I like it but it puts me up just more then I like. Im one who rather have that "down in the bike" feel.


SO if anyone out there has the Badlander on a ultra please speak up... pics would be great to. Thanks

Had one on my Road King and still have it for my Fugly. I love it. Not for the long haul, but I can do 250-300 miles without much discomfort.

Same here.....bought one over the winter and love it.

I like the fact that is allows me to sit back more on the bike, as compared to the stock seat. It does seem to be a bit wider than the stock seat and I only notice it when putting both feet on the ground.

I'd ditch my stock 2up seat if the gf didnt love the stock one when riding.
Heres a cell pic on my 2004 Ultra:

...and with the tour pack on:

A freind of mine had one on his electraglide. When out riding he would complain about his seat and his back but when not riding he would swear it was the best seat made. LOL

I have a Sundowner and will never give it up unless they make a seat as comfortable that slides me forward about an inch.
