Looking for a single seat for my Super Valk...with a back rest, I am sure this has been asked before.
I am 6'4" and have been riding with the OEM seat and have not had any problems with it comfort wise...I like the look of the single seat with a backrest.
So I am looking to all of you that have been there done that on a Super Valk...
Pics would be nice...
Vinyl / Leather???

Day Long... hands down. Had both, couldn't stand the Ultimate any longer than 7,000 miles, then gave it away. Had to have something to sit on for those miles while I had my 100k mile Day Long being rebuilt. And... LEATHER only for this ol' 'Dog's butt. Yeah... that's an I/S tank/bags

I was checking out both sites and am not sure if i can just order a one-up seat for an I/S. What model seat is on your bike?

Leather Day Long, hands down. Get a cheap Honda rider seat on ebay to send to Russell Day long. They will build the seat on it. It will fit perfectly on the IS.

Hi Super Got the Ultimate Big Boy on my Valks. Not perfect but very good. I enjoy having them on the bikes. I do also like the look of a solo seat on my SV. Happy Trails Adrian(Chrome)V

I got mine used... found a dealership that had a Valk in on trade. The Russell was on the bike and the dealer wished he had an OEM saddle for it. I traded him straight across for a '99 OEM saddle set I had in my basement... and retired the Mustang I was riding on for the prior 40K miles.

I'm 5' 6 so the ultimate low boy is a great seat for me. The people who have the day long seats seem to love them.
