- ** I paid full price for this seat**
This is a detailed product review of my Saddlemen Road Sofa seat. This particular seat is on my 2022 Street Glide Special.
Personally, I really like this seat. However, I know motorcycle seats are a very hotly debated topic.
I encourage you to do your research. Use this video as part of your research, but definitely go out and demo some seats before you buy one. From my experience in shopping for this seat, most stores were willing to demo the seat, and I ultimately tested it out at a Harley dealership.
Use this video, other reviews, social media opinions, and then go test one out for yourself. After you have done all of that, form your own opinion.

Good review. I’ve always swapped out my stock seats to Mustang seats and have been happy with those. I would like to try Saddleman seats next time. They get such good reviews I would like to check them out. Good luck with your new channel. Keep,up the good work.
Thanks for the honest review Brandon, we appreciate you.

Great video. You covered several subjects I hadn't seen in other videos. Thanks.
That's great to hear. Thank you for watching and subscribing.
Brother that tip on tightening that screw to adjust the back rest was HUGE!! Made all the difference in the world! Thanks!
Glad it worked out! Yeah I remember it made a huge difference when I did it. I remember thinking, “why didn’t I do this sooner”. 😂
Great review. I went with the Saddleman SDC seat and I’m loving it. I’m subscribed
Thank you for the support!!!
Good video brother! Very informative!
Great review! Thorough and well done sir!
Thank you!!!
Thanks for the review. Been looking at seats for a while now. Still haven't decided which way we want to go. Was thinking about trying a Lepera rt66 but there's very little info about them.
I remember the fun I had riding to the Corbin factory in Hollister, Ca. and having my seat made right in front of me. That was the best seat I ever rode with. Glad you found one you really like because it’s so important.
Definitely important. Cool looks will only get you so far on a long trip. Seat can make or break it.
I've had numerous Corbin seat they are.my for to for new seats.
@@markmcintosh7095Corbin makes a quality/heavy duty seat. Only thing I found is they haven’t progressed with new materials like other manufacturers. Their seats will last longer than most bikes, but lack the comfort and/or performance imo.
Nice job Brandon great video!
Thank you!
Good review ! I just came across your channel actually and I'm happy to support you and other fellow motovloggers. I look forward to seeing and hearing more from you in the future. Keep up the great work and ride safe out there ...
Thanks for watching and supporting.
I had a Saddlemen for a few thousand miles and it never broke in, stayed very firm.
No heat, no seat. Great vid though, thanx.
The seat doesn’t need to come off to put the raincover, you just need to work on putting it on while it’s in the garage before you need it. Practice before it’s needed does wonders.
Great review and a great seat. I made the switch to @saddlemen about a year ago and I will not use any other seat on my Harleys. I recent put out a video covering the 4 different Saddlemen seats I run. GelCore technology is a game changer. Ride safe and enjoy. 👊👍🇺🇸

Thanks 👍
I love my Saddelmen Road Sofa, although I will say it does take a couple a thousand miles to break it in.
I put over 10k miles on my CFRS, and it actually became more uncomfortable by the time I got rid of it. Also, it was not explained that if didn’t buy the seat with back rest, you couldn’t add it later. You would have to buy a whole new seat. So I went with the Mustang Super Touring Deluxe. Much better ❤
Thanks for watching
Looks pretty 👍
Thanks for watching
I bought a Saddlleman Road sofa in the carbon fibre look in November 22 I rode with it with 3500 km to break in the seat and it’s still as hard as a rock. I wrote an email to Saddleman to see if I could get a refund. They never replied. I wish I never bought the seat.
My instructions say that the rain cover is only intended for when the motorcycle is parked. Mine didn’t come with a cover I wonder if they {HD dealer} forgot to give it to me.
I didn’t like it, my wife hated it. It took me from sitting in the bike to sitting up on it, awkwardly. Ended up giving it to my dad and he loves it.
Good review. Does the saddleman seat sit you different on the bike. Like higher or back or front further than stock seat. Also good info on the rain cover. Wasn’t aware that you shouldn’t get those wet
It’s definitely a little higher. MAYBE a little further back but I’m not certain. Thanks for watching!
@@brandonsbikes1038 thanks for the quick reply. Appreciate you
Bought my 21 street glide with 3 miles part of the deal was a seat off of a new road king. Wife is happy
Did you put a stock Road King seat on there or a Road Sofa?
Stock
How’s the seat look when you take out the back rest I seen the leather when ppl removed it be all folded and dented after using the backrest for awhile , does it go back to normal ? Or do you alwyas just keep the back rest on?
Like in your video
You see a tiny hole or indent where the set screw it and the seat where the back rest slots in is all folded
🤘🤘🤘
I just order this seat. I got it made in all whisper. So the rain cover is not needed
I skipped the back rest because it looks like it doesn't leave much room for the passenger.
How does the Road Sofa do vs perceived engine vibration? I have an older TwinCam and it's a little lumpy on longer trips 😅
The vibration doesn’t bother me at all
Don’t forget that seat needs to be broken in. It will soften up. 👍🏾
Thanks for watching and supporting
Does the saddleman set you lower to the ground compared to stock ?
Yes it does. I didn’t measure it, but it does.
Wow - I believe you - but that cover looks like saran wrap and not sure how the hell water gets through there - 🤷♂
Living in Miami … I need a seat that is waterproof without that poncho.
The rain cover sucks! Maybe use a trash bag. The seat is very nice.
What size windscreen is that?
6 1/2”
@@brandonsbikes1038 thanks. I’m having a really difficult time finding the right size winter and for my street glide special. Already tried the clock works 6 1/2 and I felt like a bobble head high speed… I think I’m gonna go for 11 1/2
@@JD-ww4nl hope you find something that works for you. My 6 1/2 is great and WAY better than stock
@@brandonsbikes1038 already tried it 6.5 is way too short so is the 8.5 I a bit too tall. May try the 11.5 but not of the fan of the looks of a tall windshield but function over form
Do you still like this seat?
Yes I do
Get yourself a air hawk
Harley needs to stop making seats and handle bars.
Yeah I wasn’t a fan of the stock seat
Your bike reminds me of Matt Laidlaws bike, and for that reason is why I can’t give you a thumbs up, it seems you have copied him, sorry about that, hope you understand.
I don’t even know who Matt Laidlaw is, but I respect your decision.
A seat that can't get wet is a POS
