That seat does look awesome much better than the factory looked.

Not enough back seat for the YL afraid I'd get some Neg feedback. Not talkin bout the Stereo either!

I've been MIA from the site but back up now.  Picked up my TS CVO and looks and runs great.  I weigh 191 LBS and when seated the stock seat pulls back but when I dismount it flexes back into place.  I'm sure it will only get worse therefore looking for a good replacement.  Ideas?

Mine reacts the same at 176 lbs.  Shows about 1/4" when riding and barely back in place when off the bike.  Seems like most are going to aftermarket seats to fix the moco problem.

Welcome back to the site.  I hope you had a good homecoming and a good Christmas with the family.  Hope you are enjoying your bike.  I still do not have one yet, but AAFES is supposed to have more in Jan.  I hope to get one before I go on R&R in Feb.  Time to put up some pictures and show the rest of us what you've been up to.

Sometimes work gets in the way of my site time and work has been pretty heavy lately.

It may come down to a fly and ride and the rest of youze doing the shopping for me, but right now I still have a long time to wait things out in the sand box.  I really should know something in a few weeks.  If I don't hear anything by mid to late Jan I may have to light some fires.

I've been watching this tread for news about a fix for the 2010 SESG. I have also been watching the seat gap get larger. I fear that it is not just a cosmetic problem but a safety issue. So, I took it to my dealer today and he said "known problem, no fix" What can I do now? Please advise.

UPDATE: Dealer did a follow up call with HD tech services. Seat vendor will have an adapter kit available in about two weeks. Claims all SESG owners will get a notice (not a recall) that kit is available. Poll: What's the Odds?

I ASS-U-ME no cost. I think the fix is only a bracket.

Who is the actual seat vendor?  Haven't been notified yet but not holding my breath.

That means about two months.  Gotta be able to understand MoCo speak. :huepfenlol2:

The permanent solution is either a Corbin or C&C seat. :2vrolijk_21:
