Saddleman Seat

Who has a Saddleman on their f6b? What do you think about it?

I was wondering that same question myself. I am a few hours away might have to take a ride in Los Angles soon

I found a Saddlemen seat (gently used) on this Forum. After install, IMHO, it dropped me about 1/2 to 3/4 inch lower than OEM seat. And, there is a pretty comfortable "lower back rest" that results from the sculpturing of the seat. I did have some install issues in trying to line-up the seat bolts. I contacted Saddlemen to ask some ??s and they responded that they didn't have a seat for a F6B! Weird... very weird... so I went back to the seller who was adamant that the seat came off of his F6B. He suggested getting some seat bolts with tapered ends to help "get the tip in...". So I bought a set of those... and after some finaggling and a beer or two, was finally able to get all four bolts secured.

As far as comfort... IMHO, very comfortable. I recently did a 6-day ride -- about 2,200 miles; riding between 350-400 miles/day -- and no issues; very comfortable.

2016 Deluxe. It took using aftermarket tapered bolts to get the mounting to work.
