Ok, since no one's asked...it begs these questions be answered...Who makes it? How much was it? How comfortable is it?

Its actually the stock seat with added foam and recovered by a local guy here in Kansas City.  He uses all leather that is buttery soft.  The embroidery was also done locally.  I just used a picture of the eagle off of the side of the tank.  Hehe, we also installed a viberider for my lady in the back.  The seat was $350.  I haven't got the bill for the back rests yet because he is finishing up on the tour back pad that will also match.  I didn't have any problems with the stock CVO seat, but he made it alot better.

No offense taken...at least by me.  It may be a whole other issue if your lady ever reads this thread...

...or if you have to give a stranded buddy a lift someday and accidental turn the thing on ???

I zoomed in on the pic...very nice stitching...as good or better than most of the high-dollar companies that specialize in bike seats.  Priced at $350...might be more business for him from other forum members.  Give us his contact info.

Can you say commission $$$  :orange:

Thanks.  I went to High School with this Slimmy.  He does it in his basement.  If anyone is interested in getting a quote with him, let me know.  He usually existing seats and works with it.  He even recovers other manufactures.  I saw a corbin that he re-covered.  Looks just as nice as the orgional at a fraction of the price of a new one.  He also can add or remove foam.  He also does custom color and embroidary work.
