got my new seat back ,was the stock seat ,cut it down so you can see the shape of the frame at the front better and reshaped it all over ,and the passenger seat is half way between the sundowner and stock ,,i think it looks slick ,all done in black leather

I like the idea of reshaping the seat. Looks good!

thanks wick it took my guy a month to do ,had about 8 phone calls from him saying come and have a look and sit on it and just went at it slowly slowly ,much better and cheaper than buying a sundowner imo ,had sundowner on but was too bulky for me ,so we also cut out the foam towards the back you cant tell but also got rid of the bulk of the front and shortend it down a bit like the cfr seat ,but it was the passenger that i liked the most ,sloped it so its more in line with the bike ,with the tourer everyone kept on slipping there ass foward and forever had to readjust where they satcos if you looked at it from the side it deffinatly sloped towards the front of the bike ,you would think if they had to slope it it would have been the other way to follow the line of the fender ,but no that would be doing something to thoughtful,,,lol ,this one is flat no slope and no one slides foward any more, and also not so bulky ,just better shape ans softer ,will get better pics i daylight ,these pics dont do it justice to the work he put into it,,
