Saddlemen Explorer Special Seat For Harley Sportster

These seats feature deep sculptured saddles with the most refined contours ever developed, painstakingly perfected to provide comfortable, even support. The exclusive split-cushion saddle separates the lumbar support and seat cushions so they compress independently, reducing tail and hip bone pressure and the tendency to slide forward. The hand-crafted cover includes Saddlemen's classic stitch-top, leather-grain SaddleHyde with sparkling chrome studs. Under the seat’s cover lays a plush layer of headliner foam for a supple touch. Beneath that comes another key comfort ingredient: large pads of Saddlemen’s  proprietary SaddleGel that damps vibration while providing outstanding supportive qualities. A foundation of Saddlemen's progressive density foam is the  suspension system of the seat offering steadfast support that will not break down after long miles or many years of use.

Features:

  • A sharp, custom version of Saddlemen's popular touring seat that is engineered and styled to add superb comfort and quality to touring-type and cruiser motorcycles
  • The seat’s contours have been carefully developed using our decades of experience to provide mile after mile of riding pleasure
  • Explorer Special seats generally have the same height as the motorcycle’s original seat, but with a carefully shaped front section so the rider can better touch the ground at stops
  • Leather-grain SaddleHyde seat cover offers excellent comfort with classic feel but is weather-resistant providing for low-maintenance ownership
  • This stitch-top cover provides initial pushiness and a custom appearance while the progressive density foam and SaddleGel foundation for both driver and passenger offers supportive comfort for hours on end
  • Accent rows of dozens of perfectly spaced chrome studs add the right level of custom to your seat
  • Exclusive, unique split-cushion design separates the seating surface from the lumbar support, reducing tailbone and back pressure for maximum long-range comfort
  • These seats feature large, plush lumbar sections that support the driver’s back and posterior so well that big miles add up before you notice it
  • The passenger section has been altered to improve comfort by strategically adding foam height and shaping the seating area so the passenger is not forced into the driver and has a better view over the driver’s shoulder
  • Special care was taken so the seat’s pillion area fits well with backrests or rear trunks
  • The seat’s carefully engineered, gel-coated marine-grade fiberglass base with plated hardware is the foundation for a long service life
  • Each seat is easy-to-install with all necessary mounting hardware and instructions included
  • Designed and made in the USA
