I have had one for 3+ years and have been quite satisfied with the fit and comfort of it. I don't remember exactly but I am thinking the price was more like $400 to $500 because I know I wouldn't have paid anywhere near $800 for a seat let alone $1200? The quality of the 'saddlehide' or whatever they call the vinyl covering is something else and their 'customer service' likewise sucks. The actual seating area has held up quite well with no visible signs of wear in almost 40,000 miles however the 'backrest' portion of the driver's seat has not held up so well. I don't know if my belt wore it or whatever but it seems like the very top layer of vinyl has worn off and frankly it looks like crap. I just wear a standard leather belt with no studs or whatever but evidently the leather belt did wear the vinyl. I e-mailed them asking about a dye or possibly sending the cover back for an 'insert' but as yet have not even received an acknowledgement from them let alone an answer for my problem?I have one, paid WAY too much for it new fromw Saddlemens. For $200.00, though, I'd forego my problems I've had with the factory. They don't care about the customer after the sale, in my opinion. It is a great seat, mine just fit sloppy all the way around, and all that hooey about "tell us your inseam and hieght" is crap. They absolutely did not follow my custom order. You can get the same seat fromJC Whitney for $300.00 I think it was. jimsjinx
