Want to replace the seat on my X any suggestions?

I have the Ultimate MidRider and love it. *Anything* is better than the stock seat.

I have the Ultimate Lowrider

at least I think that is the model - drops you down and forward about an inch.  There is another model for the larger guys that actually moves you back an inch.  I needed the inch forward.

It's like riding a lazy boy down the road.

badx is a cheap mod.....

First welcome to the board.
What kind of X do you have?

I did the BADX mod myself, but cut the foam out to the pan and added 3/4" memory foam.
Loving every minute of it.

here is a link to some pictures down at the bottom

I have the Ultimate as well. I like it a lot!

I have an ultimate bigboy and a badx. No matter which one I use, my butt still wants off at 100 miles.

[TexPops]

Yep, Ultimate here,too. Did the badx thing but finally went with the Ultimate. Just like my LaZboy

+1 on the sead mod... for around $50 or whatever it was (includes shipping), I've got a seat that doesn't cause butt burn for a looooong time.  Love it.  Check him out on the national boards.

I've got a related question about seats.
I have a '05 1800R.
Is there a seat made that has an integrated passenger seat and integrated backrest for both rider and passenger?
I'm trying to find an alternative to buying a new more comfortable set of seats and a sissy bar for my girl.

Yes Ultimate makes them.

Not sure where I saw it, but I think there is a seat that the passendger seat folds down and has a hard cover when 1 up riding.
I think it folds up and acts like a backrest for the passenger and there might be a place to put a driver backrest?

I will see if I can find it again, or someone on the board knows what I am talking about.
 I know I saw one @ Global Motorsports about 4 months ago.

Jimmy, you get the Big boy or the LR ?

Corbin makes the "Rumble Seat."  Here is a link to the seat on a retro.  They make it to fit other X's.
