Hello all, haven't been on for a while, work sux.

My ridin' buddy recieved his B/O and his seat went all the way up and over the console, I went to my service gal, she called her H-D contact and they said they're aware of the problem, asked for my Vin #, then said..."order him a new seat", they didn't even need to see mine...anyway, new seat on the way, cool! :2vrolijk_21:

Thank Carlos. Going to try and verify this Thurs. or Fri. I was about to "cover" the tank and such in the gap w/ a piece of leather as someone else here did.

They replaced mine as well...too short and crookedly sewn at front!  It also slid back when I sat on it.  New one touches console and stays in place when I plop my 210 lbs on it...satisfactory :coolblue:

Florida in January was fantastic, my buddy only had 33 miles on his O/B...we towed from DC to Melbourne, unloaded and rode A1A to Miami, then Islamorada, then Key West, then back to Ft. Lauderdale back up to Melbourne, A1A most of the way, 7 days total...much better than DC during the 'O'nauguration...gonna make it a yearly trip now!!

mine has a big gap before I even sit on it :o, I'll take a pic of it today and post tomorrow, nevertheless, if there's a gap while you're on it I'd take a pic of it and pass on to your service people, since the MoCo is aware of it - shouldn't be a problem

Carlos,

           Thanks for the heads up on this issue.   :2vrolijk_20:  I hate that gap!   :sauer005:  Just did not have the sense to complain.   :duhk:  Will do now though.   :furious3:  Thank you!!   :xyxthumbs:

Carlos thank`s for the Head`s up on the gap issue. Called my dealer today, they have only sold one SERG (mine) so they were unaware of the issue. She is calling me back after she get`s some info from Mo Co on this.

Thank`s again.
