My New highly uncomfortable - but really cool seat !
« on: August 21, 2007, 09:28:46 PM »

Bought a ripped Softail Standard Seat off Ebay for $10- cut it way down - had it recovered in a Natural, unfinished, distressed Leather.
Bottom line - cut a little too much off - not much padding for the old butt - but - looks great and I can deal with it for the short Bar to Bar runs that make up my typical Sat Sun rides. And NO, the wife will not even try to ride on it - there is no padding in the back!!
Still have the Stocker, and a Softail Sundowner for the wife.

The seat looks great , colore compliments the bike and the lines are great, you could always put memory foam in there to replace the stock foam

MrsWe, once after a pickup changed lanes almost on top of me I'm pretty sure I distressed the leather in my seat  ??? .
