I've narrowed down my seat choices to Rick Mayer, which I would do as a ride in, and Ultimate. Really liked Ultimate on my Valkyrie.

A desire for a drivers backrest is the problem I'm facing with Rick Mayer and I'd like the input of others on this. My understanding is that he will recover a backrest such as a Utopia and also the stock passenger backrest as desired. But what drivers backrest to use?? The Utopia, for all it's quality, still doesn't match the stock passenger rest in size or style. I don't want to screw up the looks of the bike with mismatced, over sized, or otherwise unattractive backrests. Your ideas, please on how to solve the backrest issue on a Rick Mayer seat.

The Russell Day-Long seat would be a great choice too but they told me that it would raise my seat height by about an inch and a half. With my 30 inch inseam, I'm not sure that would be a good idea.

I know backrests will be no problem from Ultimate and they say that their seat will be really good looking.

I'll have to make up my mind on this when Ultimate hits the market.
