When I first got my SEFB I hated the stock seats lack of comfort. But I still love the way it looks. I baught this Mustang seat an use it sometimes. Its comfy as hell but does not look quite as good as the stocker.

I have since grown to find the stock seat plenty comfortable. It took getting used to. After owning the bike for two years now I have grown quite fond of this stock look.

I still ride with the stock seat on  my FLSTFSE2 and i am looking for a seat.I was hoping for a passenger backrest seat from MOCO for this year but they dont have one as of yet.I am considering deep bucket or tall boy.I am 6'2" so would i be comfy on a tallboy?I sure could use some stretch.Anyone ever used one?Looking for some advices.Thanks [smiley=drink.gif]

I have 4 seats Altug, and as you say " I could use some stretch", My favorite is my Corbin Hollywood Solo for just that reason, it sets you down and back and lets you "STRETCH" out. I think the most comforatable 2 up is the mustang 2 piece, but for both comfort and looks that Lapera Kona has the "sorrento" is really hard to beat. plain its only like 350.00...

Well Mike,

You and I both know that the Silver is the fastest color. The pigment for some reason is slicker than the other colors. The Fatboy was made to be Silver. The first ones to roll off the assembly line in 1990..............yup.......silver. The 15th Anniversary color........you guessed it.........silver!

BTW Mike that's a pretty awesome skoot you got there yourself. I especially like the tail light! ;D

Hey novee, Did you find a seat yet?  I ride a SEUC but am trying to wrangle an SEFB2 as I write this.  I can't make up my mind on colors.

    Anyhow I was reading through some posts and found mention of Aligator Bobs.  He has some real bitchin seats.  I really like the look of the stock seat with the chrome too.  I want to ride solo.  I want a seat with a detachable back rest in the stock configuration.

    Check him out maybe he can help.  Remember you get what ya pay for.  Good luck

Screamin, how much for the Alligator Bob seat?
I like it.
You sent him yours and he rebuilt it?

Thanks for the tips guys.I must agree that silver looks awesome on Fatboys.Nothing beats the stock look.A friend is building a custom bike for me and there i saw some seats with gel padding and they looked like Alligator Bob style.I saw some with patterns and snake skins and all that.Once I get my new bike wich wont be before april i will try the gel seat and will maybe add some gel padding on my stock seat.I can do 300+ miles a day wich would be 500km i guess and i dont have a big problem.I was thinking of the tall boy for extra lenght and strech but it sure looks like crap.Tnued do you have the pics with the corbin hollywood? :drink:

Altug, I'll get you a picture of it with the Mustang 2 up 2 piece next weekend, doesnt look real good but the comfort is second to none in my opinion. I have rode 400+ with no real comfort issue. The Corbin Hollywood is my choice 250 or less in a day. sets you low and back.

Looking good Jim! & those bars are awesome as well. FYI you should keep the welded areas polished or waxed to avoid any chance of rust forming. I don't have a problem but I see a lot that do start to rust in these areas but they are mostly on bikes which are ridden daily & very rarely cleaned or detailed!
