I have a small crack at the top of the seat where it meets the tank, but other than that NO.
I have tried to keep it lubed with the stuff that HD provided with the bike, so that may have helped  some ...[smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Harley supplies a small quantity of their leather dressing with the CVO bikes for the leather seat.  If the leather gets dried out it will crack.

WOW.....THAT IS BAD.
I could send ya a pic of mine, but my guess is, you wouldn't even see the crack in my seat. How many seat miles is that ?

That looks like it would be tough to repair.  It looks like it's also beginning to tear away from the seam in the lower-left hand area of the insert (bottom of the photo).  Think it was wet for too long, oh, say, perhaps during the month of April?

Maybe the seat problem is just a bad case of toxic butt?  [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

the dealer at Louisville H-D had a 2002 FLHRSEI [purple] with a seat with the same problems last week. It looked like someone had tried to fix the seam with a glue gun. He was asking $20k for the bike.
I took my seat off and put it in a box when I replaced it with a Mustang.
