Road Zeppelin® Air Adjustable Seat - Leather


When we sit down on the job, it's usually on a motorcycle. That's where we developed and tested the revolutionary comfort of the Road Zeppelin® Seat Collection. These remarkable seats remove pressure points and adjust rider and passenger positions with the push of a few buttons. These buttons control air bladders that are placed within the seat to help relieve pressure from the lower back, tailbone or lower extremities. The seats come with a protective, water-resistant cover and are easy--to-install. So grab a seat. And enjoy the ride. This premium seat features leather seating surfaces for long distance touring comfort. This seat removes pressure points and adjust rider/passenger positions with the push of a few buttons. These buttons control air bladders that are placed within the seat to help relieve pressure from the lower back, tailbone or lower extremities. Kit includes protective rain cover. Seat width 21"; passenger pillion width 17.0".

She is about 5'3" and it put her up just a little bit higher in the seat and the back of her legs hit the bags. so for anyone over 5'4" tall it would be fine. To tell you the truth I'd rather keep the seat and find a taller wife but after 22 years that ain't happening.
We raised the floor boards as high as we can with the extended reach brackets and she don't like the kuryakyn adjustable ones so the seat must go.
