Yesterday I received my two new Danny Gray Seats. One is a Butt Crack Solo p/n 0802-0411. It fit good. I have to push the back just a little to install the rear placement screw. The other is a weekday two up seat p/n 0802=0359. It fit however the front tong was not long enough to fit into the front square insert. I called Danny Gray and spoke to Sherry. I told her my situation. They are now making a seat to fit my Bike correctly. Both these seats fit the Bike so much better than the stock seat.The reason for this problem is the center console is diffrent than the stock console. As soon as I can I will take some photos and post. If you are Intrested please call and talk to Sherry at Danny Gray. They have been more than willing to help.

Call American Classic Motors. I ordered mine with them. I spoke to Joe in parts. The p/n is 0802-0411 and I paid 237.90 and that included tax and shipping. I have not gotten to ride yet due to the weather (rain) but it sits nice and feels comfortable. It really looks good and shows the rear finder well. Good Luck.

Look forward to seeing pic's of the solo!

I am working in Saudi Arabia right now. I go home in Feb. and will take the pic's. I did get to ride it once before I left. It felt good. It was a short ride due to the weather.

What year is your bike? Is this a 2009?

I have a 2007 FXSTSSE. As soon as I get Home I will get some Pictures. Like I said before I am out of the Country right now. I got the Seats in two days before I left. If anybody calls Danny Gray ask for Sherry. She knows about the difference in the FXSTSSE seats.

I just called and spoke with Sherry and she told me that Danny Gray does NOT have any seats that fit a 2009 Springer CVO. How did you get the solo seat to fit? Do you have a 2009? Can you post a couple if pictures?

Thanks,

Chris

If you read the post above yours, Jeff writes that he has a 2007 fxstsse,

OK, thanks. So apparently there is still no aftermarket seat for the 2009 Springer CVO. That sucks.

Yes it always takes a while for the aftermarket guys to make new products!

Here is a photo of my new seat that I received from Danny Gray. It is comfortable and supports my back.

ice6900 · « **Reply #14 on:** March 16, 2010, 02:00:44 PM »

nice, is the rear seat tested and approved by your BSR?

JeffsHogPen · « **Reply #15 on:** March 17, 2010, 04:04:43 AM »

I just received the seat. I did take a short ride with it. It does not move me forward like I have heard other seats do. I will give an update after I put some more miles on.

Springer Bill · « **Reply #16 on:** April 26, 2010, 07:56:33 PM »

Do you find this seat to be more comfortable than the stock seat.I am really thinking of buying a Danny gray seat do you suggest asking them to move me foward if they can ,since i'm short.Thanks for any feed back you have on the 2 up seat.

skippy · « **Reply #17 on:** April 27, 2010, 06:50:36 PM »

ANY PIC OF THE SOLO , I think I may want one for my springer.....

JeffsHogPen · « **Reply #18 on:** May 12, 2010, 06:47:45 PM »

Here is a Picture of My Bike With the Butt Crack Solo Seat. I have been riding using both seats. The two up is really comfortable. The Solo feels good but not as good as the two up. Remember to ask for Sherry when you contact Danny Gray. She and I have been in contact and she will help you get your seat.

StrahDawg · « **Reply #19 on:** May 17, 2010, 11:34:31 AM »

Looks cool anymore pic's of the solo?

Just ordered my solo from Danny Gray 3 weeks out

swat1 · « **Reply #21 on:** June 26, 2010, 12:13:01 AM »

What did the two up run you?

skippy · « **Reply #22 on:** June 26, 2010, 03:40:10 PM »

$275.00

Racerdj · « **Reply #23 on:** July 03, 2010, 07:03:29 PM »

I really like the solo seat!

Got the Danny Gray solo on the springer last week and did 250 miles yesterday it seems to be ok was on the bike nonstop for 2.5 hours a little num but nothing to bad... it fits great.....

JeffsHogPen · « **Reply #25 on:** July 18, 2010, 11:40:38 PM »

I felt the same way about the seat.....the weekend two up is a lot more comfortable..........but the Solo looks so nice.....please post a picture when you get time....

SEgle · « **Reply #26 on:** November 19, 2010, 07:52:28 PM »

Looks like there is an option for those of us with 09 models. I recently recieved an email from Christine Le Pera stating the following: 'Unfortunatley none of our seats will fit your bike… I am sorry".

Today though, I received an email as a result of this post, http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.php?topic=56153.0

So i have attached a sample of some pics that were sent to me. I'm sure the vendor will do the same for any one else.
Good luck, Dave.

These Seat Company's need to realize that there is a market here for the CVO People. If Harley will not meet our need then someone will step up to the plate. Hopefully over time they will be more adaptable for the CVO People.........It is hard for me to understand why Harley does so little for the CVO in Seats, and the little extras.
