I ordered directly from Saddlemen and although the process took a few weeks, once they started on my order, I received steady updates every day or two until it shipped. My FXLRST looks DOPE with my brown Step Up and matching sissy bar pad. All of my future bikes will have Saddlemen seats.

I recently got my custom ordered Saddlemen step up, brown with the tuck and roll on the front and stitched in the back in wineberry thread, gel all around. It felt amazing from the first day - I don't get people who say there is a long break in period. The seat has changed the game for me. I got regular updates from the factory of the steps my seat was in and it was super cool to follow it. Thanks for showing factory Blockhead - this is a great video!

The process for the "stitching" looked like they were using a Pounce Pattern. Airbrush artists and Pinstripers use a similar process. They have a stencil pattern that has a bunch of holes in it. They take that stencil or template and use a pounce bag (chalk bag, sock or box filled with powder) and tap the stencil. That chalk will remain on the surface. Now you can either stitch or lay a tape line if you're doing flames or some other type of pattern that you're going to tape or mask off.

I put a Saddlemen Road Sofa on my Road Glide because the factory seat pushed into my tail too much and there was no cushion for my wife. Mine needed no break in period, it was great from day one. The factory seat does set you into the bike where the road sofa sets you on the bike. I prefer to set on the bike myself. It helped me sit up straighter with the backrest and it also set me up a little higher. I will buy from Saddlemen again if I ever need a new seat.

Saddleman seat has been best thing I have ever done for my motorcycle. Had a Mustang and it put me in physical therapy for syatica.

I ride 3 hours straight Ultra Limited and get off bike feeling like I have not even been riding. Amazing!
