And while you're at it (MeanCityCycle), you might want to consider have Allen add heaters to driver and passager. The whole package is still gonna be less expensive than good aftermarket seats.

Another very happy MCC seat mod customer...1/3 price of new/replacement & better fit because you tell them what you want...+ member discount from HDF vendors to boot.

Seats are so subjective, it's difficult to find the right fit. I am 6'1" 240 and have the Mustang Wide Regal seat and like it alot. I tried the HD Zeppelin seat, but it was just too damn big.

Haven't tried Mean City, but have not seen any complaints after the seat was re-worked. Pretty much anything is better than the stock seat IMO.

I don't understand why the people at Harley keep making seats that have you sitting on your ******* instead of your ***. I'm starting to believe no one at Harley has a pair of *****.
