seats
seat of power
The right seat is equal parts ergonomics and
comfort. Its shape anchors your position
and determines the reach to the ground and to
the controls; and the padding supports your
tailbone and hips to relieve stress and pressure.
Pick the right one for you…and your passenger.
softail seat types
Solo or two-up, comfort or style, check out these seats to get an idea of
where you want to sit.
low-profile seats
These saddles combine radical
styling with a “deep in the
bike” riding position. Long
and lean, Badlander, ®
Brawler ® and Sidekick ® seats
bring you lower to the
ground than most other seats.

comfort zone
A seat is more than just leather and foam. For maximum highway
comfort, a broad seating surface distributes weight to reduce pressure
points. For a short rider, a narrow, tapered thigh zone provides
easier reach to the ground. And a stepped seat profile keeps the rider
from sliding back during acceleration.
touring seats
Designed for comfort,
Sundowner and Signature
Series seats offer a broad
seating surface to reduce
pressure points and a
dished shape holds you in
place and provides
additional back support.
changing your seat
Switching out your seat is simple.
And because certain rides call
for certain styles, some folks like
to have multiple seats to match
the occasion. Install a comfortable,
supportive touring seat for the
longer treks, and swap it out for
a low-profile seat for a night on
the town. Please see your owner's
manual for proper removal and
installation of seats.
