Thumbs up Zeppelin seat

Does anybody know where I can try out a road zeppelin seat (don't want to fork out £700 without trying one out!) I have tried no end of Harley dealerships but nobody stocks them.
Thanks

Yes if you come by my house I will let you check mine out but it is on my 02 ultra with a 06 standard sidecar so you would have to be familiar with driving a rig. Only thing I do not like about it is after 90K miles the padding has gotten up under the air bags. Need to have some work done to it but keep in mind this is after 90,000 miles For me if I want to look through the windshield I leave all the air out. When I want to look over the windshield I put some air in. I all so want to let you know you do sit up higher.

I see you live across the big pond so I guess coming by the house is not easy. I use to have two of the seats that I loaned one to a good friend and only problem he had was sitting higher then the stock seat.

The HD dealers around me have demo seats you can try on your bike. The RZ is one of them. You might ask your dealer and see if they do seat demo's.
