Default New Mother Road Customs/Rich Phillips Seat

Just installed a new solo spring seat and bolt on mounting kit from Mother Road Customs/Rich Phillips. Also, I got the matching passenger fender pad, just in case I might need a matching one later on down the road atlthough I dont plan on using it anytime soon, for now, I think I will just leave it on for looks.

The seat and the mounting kit are well constructed. The directions were lacking... literally... but I found a video online on how to mount it, it is pretty self explanatory anyway, I'm sure I could have done it without any instruction.

Comfort wise, I cant say yet, I have only been a few miles on it so far. I can say it sure smells good.. gotta love the smell of new leather

I have one of those. For me, after about an hour I'm kinda done. It's better than stock, but that really doesn't say much. For longer trips I bust out the mustang seat. 800 miles today and it's my shoulders that hurt more than anything really.
