New Harley Touring Seats, who has tried them?

Yesterday I traded my FXD for a new Road King. Like most Harleys, after 100 miles my "other half" was complaining about the seat.

The new Harley accessory catalog, page 341, shows 2 touring seats that have a 16" wide passanger pillion. Part numbers are 51157-04 and 51102-01. Not only that but they are a few bucks cheaper than the Sundowner seat.

Has anyone tried these seats and what do you think of them? Better yet, what does your passanger think of them?

Oh yes, remind me to update my sig now that I have a new lady in the house.

I put in on my Road King Classic, same reason, the factory seat has no tush support for appropriately equipped females , and I also wanted to keep the Classic weave design to match my other leather.

Check the pillion dimension, go with the larger unit !
