bitchnstitchninc.com----------

If anybody knows who harley gets their fabric from or where I can find the mahogany brown on a 2012 maple metallic SERG seat please let me know-------------I have tried every supplier on google and cant find it.
HD must get it in bangladesh!!!!!

FWIW I called Bitchen Stitchen a month ago. i called several times over the course of a week and got voice mail each time. I did leave a message after the third attempt - that was 3 weeks ago. I still have not heard back from them. Needless to say I am not impressed
-
You will get Seth at Auto Orginals right away and if not he WILL call back

Not a true statement.
Seth @ Auto Originals, (505-327-1078) Farmington, N.M.,
I have seen several of them first hand and they are nice pieces.

Just stay away from a company called Grasshopper!
-
Glad to know about the "no call back" from Bitchn Stitchn!
Thats what I love about this site. Everybody keeps everybody from getting taken more times than not.
There is a picture on the website however , top of the home page , right hand side-------under solo seats and backrests.
Someone above said they couldn't find the picture of their backrests, but after the bad report on them Im not sure I would waste anymore time looking or trying to talk to them. Sounds like the guy in Farmington is the way to go!

CORRECTION:
The # is 325-1078---------------not 327 1078---------------Check the website.

Here is mine
-
Seth is the man!! Get the gel put in also.
-
Rich how much does something like that run? :nixweiss:
-
I'm not sure. .I had him do gel in both seats and make the back rest. .
He also made the rear seat 1" wider for more comfort.
I still have not used the back rest yet. . I may not ever use it.
The gel is priceless!!!

I have a corbin solo on my Skunk because Seth was not doing this when I purchased my Skunk. That said, as soon as I got my 13 King I sent the seat off to have Seth put gel in the seat and add the back rest. I love it, works great for a 600 mile plus day.

What does the guy in Farmington charge? more or less?

He added 1" to my stock seat front and rear, added gel , built a backrest for the front---all for the stock seat.
Then I had a mustang wide touring solo and rear pillion , he recovered with material to match my maple metallic , and added gel--------------all for 850.00
its on its way UPS as we speak. Ill post pics when I get them.

My entire seat collection is at Seth's right now.
Adding gel to the front seat. Having a rider backrest made. Front seat, rear seat, rider back rest and tour pack back rest all will get redone in the factory pattern with orange stitching and CVO logo.

With the front seat the factory white stitching was changed to orange stitching and a logo was added as well as gel.
Had a matching rider backrest built with matching logo and stitching.
The Tour Pack pad had the grey diamonds added to match the front seat as well as a logo and orange stitching.
The passenger seat was changed to orange stitching and had a grey insert added to match the front seat.

What is your Mustang seat model? Part number?
Sorry for the delay , I have been gone.
My Mustang Front seat is part # 79446,Vintage Super touring solo
The rear seat is part # 79110, although they have several different widths for the rear, You might want something narrower. The front is 17 wide and moves you back 1.25 inches and higher about an inch or so. Works great for me and the wife loves the rear seat.
The stocker just doesnt work for me even after Seth built the backrest although that was an enormous improvement. I am going to sell the stocker , front and rear , I just can't get along with it after riding the Mustang.
-
Here's mine. And Seth is a stand up guy.

Seats are done and on their way back to me! :orange: :2vrolijk_21: :carrot:

This for me caused problems as it made it tough to install my tour pack easily. It can be done, takes time and care. Once the TP is on there are no issues.

After getting my seats back I have finally put some time in riding. I don't know if it is my boney a$$ or the soft foam in the seat however I was getting sore even with the gel after a short period of time. I took my seat to my local preferred seat guy Frank Sabatinni for some padding (My local guy wouldn't have been able to put the CVO logo on it). After a trip to and from Ocean City, MD I'm liking the seat now.... So if you send your seat to Seth request the dense foam to firm it up some.
