Johnny's out riding in the Sierra mountains today. That seat is a Rick Mayer custom seat. Johnny loves his Rick Mayer seat and has one on both of his bikes.
I've ordered one and can't wait until it shows up in a couple of weeks. Rick recently lowered his prices by $100. He makes some nice comfy seats which I think are a great value.

I'll post some pics and a review when I get mine.

Funny the question of Rick Mayer's handiwork would come up just now. I saw the bit on his website that announced solo seat rebuilds for $319 (if memory serves) and I jumped on it. I contacted him to verify what seemed like too good a deal to be true. Yep, you guessed it. It was too good. When he got back to me he stated he would be willing to do the seat on my 1985 K100RS for $419. He explained that this was the best price he could offer because of the manner in which the cover is affixed to the pan. ???

Which reminds me. When I got my seat back from Rick Mayer it ended up being too high up, too far forward and kind of forces me to lean forward. Despite the fact that I sent him pictures of a Russell I have that's a perfect fit for me and told him that's where I wanted to be seated in the seat he made for me.
I've been busy and have not gotten back to him yet about getting it modded so it's comfortable for me. I need to get back to him and see what he can do for me.
The rear of the 85 seats is a little funky. And at least he told you ahead of time.
Last winter/spring he had a 25% off sale. Keep your eyes on his web site to see if he offers that again during the slow season.
