Good Luck with that 

[CVOStreetglide]

I wonder if some of us that are interested in the 2011 replacement seat can go and make sure that it will work to our satisfaction before we ask that HD use it as the replacement for our 2010 seats.  (A owner test group).

Thanks to the other posts here we now know that we will have to have a seat and a matching backrest so everything will match.  

I am going to try and hit the 3 dealers here in Jax and see if they have 2011 CVO Street Glides and if the seat will work and fit as it should.

Please post your findings as soon as you can. If it doesn't work then we may be faced with finding another solution that HD picks.

Had the 2011 seat been available when I bought my DG seat, I would have bought one. IMHO the problem was solved in 2011

MODIFIED
In fact if anyone is selling a 2011 seat and the back rest pad... I'd be very interested.

MODIFIED AGAIN
Now that I'm thinking about it... I think I'll post that in the "Buying" area

[lastdegree]

agree - would not have bought the corbin had the 2011 been around.

[Hawg]

have not sat on the 2011 seat, I am happy with my Corbin seat.

Comments aside.  I love my corbin and it nails the issue of any gap.  Real quality piece of kit.  Plus 800 miles in a day is possible - not sure that can be said for the HD seat.  Especially as I'm 230lbs (on a good day at least).

I'm very happy with my '11 SESG seat as is my wife, and as of now zero issues with the fit and finish!

A guy in our HOG chapter traded his 2010 sesg for a 2011 sesg and didn't like the 2011 seat so he got the dealer to trade him the old seat for the one on the new bike--he likes the 2010 seat better.

Huh??

[KODAGRIN]

Yeah, he didn't like the alligator and said the seat was taller--so he got the old seat off the 2010.

To be honest, I have to agree.  I've sat in both, and prefer my 2010 seat.  I don't have a gap issue and it's much more, to me at least, comfortable than the 2011 SESG seat.  Plus I like that little extra pad at the lower back that the 2010 seat gives.  But in reality, if it wouldn't look so out of place on my SESG, I'd actually put the same seat that's on my RUSE on my SESG.  That is, without a doubt, the most comfortable seat from the MoCo, I've ever had (including my Zeppelin that I had on the 02 Ultra).

RedDevil:  Talked to dealer today after I found out the gap is also on my bike.  Dont have the bars for saddlebags but he said he would say I did cause I am going forth on this.  So he ordered the replacement seat that was given on the bulliten.  I hope it matches the passenger pad.  Do you know if it does or anyone for that matter.  I guess my belly covered it up till I finally bent over with much force.  HEHE.
