Any experience with Drag Specialties seats?
Looking for people who've ridden on Drag Specialties seats. I picked up a D/S predator and have a chance at a few others. They look really decent and I'm wondering what kind of comfort level they provide, and who is the manufacturer.

I just bought the DS predator, it came in today and pick it up tomorrow, love the look, i hope it rides as good as it looks. I dont expect it to be as comfortable as my current seat, but needed a low profile and narrow seat. Let me know how yours works out for you.

I have a Drag Specialties solo seat on my '13 Street Glide. I like the fact that all the mounting hardware is hidden. No screws showing at the back of the seat
I'm sure its not the most comfy seat in the world, but its not the worst either

Hi
I have the solo with backrest and love it.
You need to use leather feed/cleaner to keep it from cracking.

I have a Drag Specialties solo with back rest on my 2012 Road King. I use it for short runs and around town quite comfortable for its size. It has blue feature stitching at the front that works in well with the blue pinstriping on the bike.

They are a nice looking seat, but I take it that it wouldn't be your first choice for a long distance trip of 1500+ miles?

I bought a Predator seat for my E.G. about 2 years ago. It looks great and has held up well. I left it on my bike last June when I rode to the Redwood Run up north to Percy (from Orange County, CA) I think it was about 600 miles one way. I will never use that seat for a ride longer than 100 miles ever again, I suffered some serious discomfort on that ride. As well my wife says its like sitting on a broom stick (ha she would know). Its cool for local riding and looks sweet but I'm throwing on my stock seat for any long rides.
