Default Winter Mods Complete
2011 Limited Ultra. Did stretched bags and the fender cover last winter. This year, new 19" front wheel, plain StreetGlide front fender, and Rush Big Louie slash-ups to match the lines of the bags. (I'm glad I don't have a boat.) Now for a warmup, and 2 or 3 days of some good hard rain, and I'm ready to go!

If you're asking the OP, it's just the plain ol' stock seat.
