Mine isn't peeling, but the seams are sure stretched.

There's more than one kind of "real" leather.  Laminated leather products are kind of like laminated "real" wood flooring, a thin layer of real material bonded to cheap stuff.  There have been tons of complaints in the furniture industry about all those leather chairs and sofas they sell with laminated leather that peel, just like some of Harley's seats.

That's what the Indian Seat is, "laminated leather"

Indian Roadmaster and Chieftains have a huge problem with the fake leather peeling on their seats and they’re super expensive.  My in laws seat on his 2017 looks like hell.    Harley uses real leather.   


Realize that this is a really old thread but for you guys that still have one....
I had the same seat "enhanced" by Rich's Leather back in the day with gel and had the vinyl replaced with real leather. That particular 2011 CVO SG seat has a vinyl cover on it but the faux snakeskin leather insert is real leather. FWIW
