    Have you ever ridden with a Saddlemen seat? Check out this video as I explore SIX Saddlemen seats for the Harley-Davidson Touring bikes. The seats featured in this video are all seats that I have personally ridden thousands of miles with and also offer a little insight as to what type of riding they make be best for given my experience. Watch until the end to see the ultimate customized performance seat. That seat is killer.

    Man o Man - this is the most comprehensive exam and review of these seats out there. Way better even than the robot app on Saddlemen’s web site. Thank You thank you thank you! I keep going back and forth between these seats - I’ll get there . What i really appreciate is you giving us the raw seat height from the ground. I haven’t seen anyone else do that. Hopefully my ‘23 StreetGlide with stock shock height is similar. You deserve a Tony or something for how good your reviews are my friend. 🎉😊

    Saddleman seats are good for sure, but not the best.

    All good seats, but choose what works for you. Dont buy just because everyone else has it. Lots of great seats out there.

    I love comparison videos. Thank you. I do, however have something to mention about how you measured the seat "length". Instead of measuring from lumbar base to front of seat, how about picking a point near the handlebars, and measure from lumbar base to that point near handlebars. To me, that gives a better idea of how close or far away the seat would sit a rider from the handlebars.

    • @HDVIBE
      @HDVIBE  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks for watching and commenting with your suggestion. That is an interesting thought. However, if you have the bars move back or forward as I do, it wouldn't be comparable for most. Typically regular vs extended reach seats are measured from the lumbar to the front of the seat to approximate the distance from the tank. If you are already a subscriber to the channel...thank you.

    I followed your advice and got the Dominator seat ext with backrest and sport pillion. So far I like it a lot as it puts me down and back a good deal. And it offers me the flexibility to run a second luggage rack in place of the pillion if required. Looks good, feels good and the price was right as well. The backrest adjustment is superior to any other backrest I have tried so far.
    One remark if I may, the seat comparison is great but it might help the viewers to compare the measurements to the stock seat because that's what everybody has at home and tries to replace. 😉

    Thanks, awesome video!
    What would you recommend for a 5'6" female rider like me? I have a Road King Special and the stock seat doesn't offer much lumbar support, and I would also like to be closer to the tank. I test rode the HD Reach seat last week and unfortunately it pushed me too much... Thanks in advance!

    • @HDVIBE
      @HDVIBE  6 месяцев назад

      Thanks for watching and commenting. The Road King Special is an awesome bike. I had a 2019 in the past. So to answer your question, I think I'd recommend a step up seat in a regular reach. They are narrow so you can get your legs closer to the bike when stopping and they offer a much higher lumbar support to get you into a good riding position. I'd suggest testing one at a dealer before you decide...but based upon my experience, I think the step up seat in regular reach will be a winner.

    Subscribed. Great review. I run the Roadsofa for ultimate 2 up touring with a backrest, heated also is awesome, brown leather with white stitching to match my '23 RoadGlide ST in White Pearl Sand. I do like the look of that last step up seat and would consider switching or having a s a second option as my partner seldom rides with me anymore so for solo touring that one looks killer and would decrease the seat height which would be better as the ST is already higher stock back shock configuration, I'm 5'10" so this RoadSofa puts me even higher, I've adjusted to it yes , but still, the slightly lower Step Up I'm sure would make flat footing it, backing the bike up easier. ok thanks again !

      Thanks for watching and commenting. I'd definitely suggest the step up with Tuck and Roll for comfort on longer trips over the slim rp.

      @stephanebrochu2627 it's not that I don't like the slim rp, I was going on the premise as to which was more comfortable. I've ridden the slim rp on 250 mile rides no problem. The lattice stitch is cool but I find the tuck and roll to be more comfortable for longer rides. But either way the gelcore is what makes it comfortable for long rides and for the long term.

      Thanks for watching and commenting. Just making sure that you are referring to the Dominator Low Solo Seat. If so, that Seat does sit low and is the shortest distance from the lumbar to the tank. If you have any questions on which Saddlemen seat is best for shorter riders out of all the Saddlemen seat line up, I'd suggest giving Saddlemen a call and chat with one of their seat specialists. Go to Saddlemen.com to get the number. If you are already a subscriber to the channel...thank you. If you haven't yet subscribed to the channel I'd be honored if you'd consider doing so.

    • @HDVIBE
      @HDVIBE  11 месяцев назад

      Thanks for watching and commenting. As I noted in the video, the shortest seat length to the ground is the Dominator Low Solo Seat. If you are looking more two up style, the Touring Step Up or the Step Up are right in the same height from around range. I'm about 5'10 and I can flat foot any of the seats in the video with knees having a slight bend...so I would think any of these would probably work for you.

      Thanks for watching and commenting. My first suggestion for any of the seats featured in this video would be to get an extended reach version. I'm 5'10", and the standard reach is fine for me, but at your height, I'd say extended reach would be better. As far as which is best...it depends on your riding style. I'd suggest talking with a @saddlemen customer service representative and they can point you in the right direction. You can also test them out at a Saddlemen dealer...typically at most HD Dealerships. If you are already a subscriber to the channel...thank you.
