Alligator Bob seat pad
« on: August 07, 2012, 11:57:25 AM »

Last year I rode my 2011 flhxse and thought the seat was ok, this year not so much. Do any of the riders out there have an Alligator Bob setup and if so how does it feel? Would you recommend it? Any and all input is appreciated. Mike

You might talk with Spiderman I believe he had a bunch of stuff done by Alligator Bob, as well as a few others.  I also think Screamin here in North Florida had some stuff done on his bike as well.  There are some awesome pictures of his work on the Elvis, spidermans old 03 SE RoadKing.
He sold it to MJZ if memory serves me right who has since sold the bike.

Alligator Bob took my Harley Reach seat and did a great custom job with it.  He cut half the foam out, covered it in Itailian leather and Buffalo.  He also added the pro pad.  I couldn't do 150 miles on the stock seat but now can ride 3x that without butt issue's.  :P. I wish I could send my "broken" back to him and let him work his magic and take that pain away.   ;)

A buddy of mine had Alligator Bob do his seat on his 2005 CVO Fatboy.  He was very happy with quality and comfort.

I had pro pads in a  2005 SEEG seat installed and was very happy with it! A lot better then the old Harley foam.
