I'm loaning my bike to Des for a few months so he can design a new seat. Unfortunately, he is going to be on the road at rallies for couple of months. Hopefully around October or November he can add the 2014 Valkyrie seat to his line-up. He's making mine in black with blue piping. In the meantime, I'm riding the Tourer or the Interstate.
A few months? You kidding me?
I have an Ultimate on my Wing. Care for it a great deal. Very nice and expensive saddle.
Why don't you just order a new oem saddle, pop it on your bike and send the original to Des to recreate his deal? All he needs is a mock up on the oem pan, eh? Mock it up and then have the bike in for a week to tweek it.
A few months seems like a lot of time to 'design a saddle' to me. But, what do I know.
