Des,

I just completed a 2700 mile trek with the wife and some friends from Oklahoma throughout Colorado and SE Utah. In all those miles NOT ONCE did I experience any back fatigue or sore saddle as I have in the past with all the other seats I have ridden in. Thank you very much for the fantastic product that you have sold me. I have recommended your seats to everyone I meet.

Ride Safe,

I had to post this. I know its been said before, but I am so happy with my seat.

I got my Ultimate Seat in Tuesday afternoon. I put it on and took a ride that night and what a difference!!! That seat is so much more superior to the stock seat. Des sent me a "big boy" seat by accident. I was supposed to get a "lowrider", but the big boy is great! Des gave me a break since it was his mistake and did not charge me the larger seat. Des was professional and polite through the the entire process. I dont think I could be any happier. It was well worth the money! It looks great to boot.

Thought I'd drop you a note to let you know the seat did a fantastic job on the trip to Key West!

I put 2,281 miles on that saddle in less than three days (1,200 of those in one day!), felt like a nice easy chair!

Des,

I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know I received my Ultimate seat yesterday. I love it! Great seat! Very comfortable! Looks wonderful! Just wanted to say thanks! I posted some feedback on the www.vtxoa.com forum for the other X'ers if you would care to read.

Have a great day!

DES

THANK YOU FOR A GREAT SEAT.
THE SERVICE AND QUALITY ARE FANTASTIC. I PASS ALONG YOUR WEB SITE TO ALL THAT HAVE VTX'S. SOME WANT TO KNOW IF YOU WILL BE MAKING SEATS FOR OTHER BIKES.
THANKS AGAIN FOR THE PROMPT DELIVERY, CAME EXACTLY WHEN YOU PROMISED. A LONG TRIP ON A BAD SEAT IS TWICE AS LONG.
THANKS

Des,

It is about time that I write to you about your seat. I'm 6' & 220 lbs. and I ordered the Ultimate Big-Boy. I rode the heck out of this seat because I could not believe the comfort that this seat produced. Each time I rode it, it became more comfortable. I put my wife on it for the Ultimate Big-Boy TEST. We rode 875 miles and she fell asleep- - - TWICE!.This from a woman who got numb-buns before the tank was dry before the switchover to your seat. She now stays in her seat while I fill up! She is also a much better passenger because she sits in the sit instead of on it, so she does not slide all around during the twisties. She also states that she can use the passenger backrest whereas before it was awkward. Why did I wait so long to purchase this MIRACLE? If any of the readers are asking the same thing- - - - - - JUST DO IT !!! You'll never think twice about it: - - - - You to will wonder why you waited!

Thank you DES,
Bill Reilly
If anybody from around Phoenix AZ. inquires about your seat have them give me a call ( or e-mail ) and I will show them your workmanship!


 
Des,

I have about 1000 miles on my new seat so far, and I LOVE it! So does my passenger. She comments about it almost every ride, especially the longer ones. People comment on how well it looks, which always touches a biker's heart. This has been a great seat, and well worth the investment. People ask me about getting one. Do you make them for any bikes besides Valkyrie and VTX?

Thanks for a superior product!

Chuck


 
Ultimate Seats,

I am very pleased with the seat you made for me. It was more than I expected. My wife was exceptionally pleased with the back seat compared to the stock back seat. There truly is no comarison. The Ultimate Seat fit my 99' Valkyrie wonderfully. Easy installed. And look as beautiful as it rode. I'm sorry words really can't describe my satisfaction.

Des,

I can't say enough good things about this seat. I have never felt more comfortable on a bike in my whole life. I don't feel the pressure under my legs at the edges of the seat like I did with the stock seat. The seat is firm yet I can tell that it is conforming to my rear end personally. I was only able to do 40 miles before the drizzle drove us back home but I can tell that my sore saddle days are gone! Thank you so much for making this seat for me.

I have told other people on the forums and you should expect to be very busy in the future making seats for 1300's.
You're the best!

Des,

I installed a driver and passenger Ultimate Seats on my 1998 Valkyire back in November of 2002. I just got back from a 2,264 mile trip in 5 days. There was no numb butt the entire trip.It really is The Ultimate Seat.
TELL EVERYONE I SAID SO!

Des,
The seat arrived yesterday. Thanks for the very fast delivery. As advertised the installation was incredibly easy. The seat looks great and to be able to plant both feet flat on the ground is a joy!!

In addition the new seat did several other things. Since it dropped the seat height my eyes are now completely below the top edge of the windshield where as
before the edge of the windshield was right at eye level causing me to constantly move my head up or down depending on the terrain.

The backrest increased the amount of body contact on the bike so that it's very easy to
transfer weight around to make turns. Finally, and this was a very pleasant and fun surprise, the bike handles very different now due to the lower center of gravity; while she's still no sport bike, she handles turns much quicker now.

I've got a 2000 mile ride coming up in two weeks. The seat will get quite the workout.

I will drop the original passenger backrest in the mail on Saturday at the latest.

Again, thanks. The seat was worth every penny.

Our seat arrived this afternoon. Installation took only a few minutes. We went for our first test ride ( about 20 min.) and both my wife and I thought our behinds had gone to heaven. I'll be doing a three day road trip ( to Deals Gap ) this weekend so your shipping timing could not have been better. Thanks for the speedy delivery.

Des,
I wanted to personally thank you for the outstanding craftsmanship on the Bigboy seat for my Valkyrie. The fit was perfect and the comfort is unbelievable. I will highly recommend your seat to any other valkyrie rider that has never experienced this kind of comfort. Thank you again!!!,

Des,
It's late Wednesday afternoon and my neighbor just dropped off the Ultimate Saddle you shipped to me yesterday by UPS. It's exactly what I was expecting as far as appearance and quality workmanship, outstanding a beautifully made saddle that I'm sure will be as comfortable as it looks!

Des, I can't even come close to expressing the proper words of thanks for everything you've done for me. It's appreciated much more then you can imagine! Wish there was someway I could re-pay you for all you've done but except for continuing to support and recommending the saddle to all that see or ask about it can't see how. Please, if
there's anything I can do let me know.

Tomorrow rain, but I'm still going to install the new saddle so it's ready to go. Heck even with the rain I'll sit on it and enjoy it's comfort knowing it was built by a man who cares about others! :)))

Thanks again Des

Claude

 
Des;
Received my seat today. I don't know anything else I can say that hasn't already been said. The seat felt great, the workmanship is first rate. As I said over the phone this seat was my last hope and I think I'll have no problem ridding any distance from now on.

Thanks Again

Pete Silkworth

 
Des,
Just wanted to share a couple of pics with you. Thank you so much for providing such a great seat. I put a couple hundred miles on the bike this weekend in total comfort. Much better than the stock rock that came with the bike.

I should be meeting with a couple of people this week specifically to show them the seat. I have also shared my feelings about the VTXR Lowrider seat via posts and pics on the VTXOA and a post on Delphi.

Just opened the box and inspected the seats. You shouldn't consider yourself a craftsman, you're an "ARTIST". These are by far the most beautifully constructed seats I've ever seen. The eye for detail and meticulous workmanship you put into your product shows me that you have a real passion for what you do.

I am looking forward to meeting you this summer at one of the rallies and to have the privilege of shaking the hand of such a talented artisan. The only regret I have is not knowing of you sooner.

Regards,

Tony Zerilli

 
Des, I would like to thank you for designing what HAS to be the finest seat on the market. I put my new Bigboy on last night, (I must add thanks for exchanging the Lowrider), and gave myself the day off today to take a good long ride. 220 miles without really going anywhere in particular, and my ride never felt so good! Your seat even helps dampen some of the "gotcha" bumps that sneak up from frost heaves here in the spring. Looks? I got comments everywhere I stopped. You definitely named your seats correctly, it is THE ULTIMATE!

Douglas Ellis

 
Thanks for the heads up, the seat arrived OK yesterday. Fits like a glove on my I/S. Excellent quality, and WOW, much easier reach to the ground vs my Corbin Dual Touring saddle. No more sliding up to the tank on hard stops either! Looking forward to taking a long trip on this one. Great stitching on the face as well. The picture on your web site doesn't do it justice. Well worth the money!

Des:
I received the new seat and my reaction can be summed up by the word outstanding!!!! I find the quality of your workmanship to be first rate and the leather is of the highest quality. The new Ultimate Seat creates a whole new riding experience and reminds me of why I bought the Valkyrie in the first place...its probably one of the best riding machines ever created. I thank you again for your outstanding product and excellent customer service. You educated me on what to expect and delivered on that expectation. I would strongly recommend the Ultimate Seat to any rider who demands a high quality seat.

Thanks, Des for creating the best, most comfortable seat I've ever tried. This seat embodies excellent design, impeccable craftsmanship, and last but not least, it's like sitting in a big 'catchers mitt'!!

Got the seats on today. Understand how you came up with the name Ultimate. My wife has been bragging to her friends, even the one's that don't ride. The complete Mustang set up we had was no comparison. Thanks for a great seat, Jim Fairey And my butt thanks you!! GREAT SEAT... You should sell them... Know what I mean??? Your new best buddy,

Received the seats pryor to Daytona 2003 and had a chance to test it on the trip from Durham, NC. Impressive, comfortable are only the beginning words to describe how well the seats perform and look. Rode them approx. 590 miles and felt great after comparing the ride on the stock seat. Again, thanks for the relief as well as the product, worth the money invested. I would strongly recommend this seat to any rider.

Des, sorry for the delay, unexpectedly out of town for an extended period of time. UPS tracking number for the brackets that I took off the stock seats I previously sent to you: 1Z448X110312615496. My new Ultimate seats are great. I have always enjoyed riding my Valkyrie, but I can truthfully say that riding with your seats installed is the first time I have been really comfortable. My wife has only ridden on a few 50 mile or so trips but she has nothing but good things to say about the comfort. Great job. Thanks,

John Smith VRCC 5666.

 
Des, Thanx, can't say enough about the Ultimate! It's everything I heard it was, plus more. Took a 3 day 800 miler last week, and felt like 400-500 mile days wouldn't be a problem. It also gets high grades from S.O. I'm putting the word out here about it. Have had inquiries about the Ultimate for other bikes. Do you currently have any plans for other than the F6? Thanx again and ride safe.

Regards, Leon

 
Des!!!!! I love you! We got the seat yesterday, and Dennis put in on this morning. He gave me a ride to get my nails done, and I am in love with it. Especially now that I am having some major problems with the RA in my hips. It seems to have settled in the bones that one sits on and there is something going on with the SI joint(?). I told my PT about you and he wants to see this super seat you make. Dennis said he may want to go ahead and order the seat for him. Can you give me the price for it? He will get in touch with you when he decides to order it Thanks for designing my throne.

You have made my buns very happy. Susan

 
HI DES,

Hi Des, I had to send you an e-mail about the seat. It arrived today, (Friday) at about 11:30am. It took me all of about five minutes to install it. My wife and I just got back home from about a 250 mile ride with some friends. The seat is GREAT! Thanks for a wonderful seat, I'm looking forward to many miles of riding pleasure.

Thrasey Tucker Auburndale, Florida (Where it's Warm!)

 
Des I got the seat today. The installation was ok getting to that back bolt on the back seat was not a whole lot of fun but I got it on. It was raining so I didn't think I'd get to try her our today but it stopped raining and I took her out. MAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNN what a difference!!!!!!!:):):) I had to adjust the handle bars but for the first time since I've had her I really felt I was in control of her. Man that back rest is awesome! between being able to reach my highway board and the back rest you have a real danger of falling asleep. What a great product thank you ever so much. Once again you have made an entire family very happy.

Thanks Dan

 
Des; I've put a couple hundred miles on the new seat, and just want to tell you this is one great seat. I am considering a backrest now. What kind of turnaround am I looking at for this?

Thanks - Ray

Well – keep going with your great , great saddles for small and big VALKYRIE RIDERS . Making people happy is a nice job .

Des,

Tried the seats today. We love them. They are both extremely comfortable. My wife could not believe that she now only feels the bumps in the road in her feet, not her seat. Thanks for a great improvement to our bike.

Tom Hughes

 
My wife has a back injury we couldn't ride 150 mile a day without me helping her off the bike. We put on the Ultimate seat on my 2001 Interstate in July. We rode 495 miles last weekend with no problems other than a little stiffness. Thanks to Des and his fine product we will be on the rode alot more than we were ever able to be before.
Bob Tasior, VRCC # 12023

 
Des, your seats are the greatest!! I've put close to 2000 miles on since I put it on... UN-freakin' believable!!!! Oh, and by the way.... Maggie says it's good on her butt also.. Again thanks...
