Good morning Des,
Just wanted to say Thank you.
You got my seat to me in under the promised 3 weeks AND before Christmas!
I installed it and attached a picture. I wish it was a nicer background, but up here in CT we are lucky to just see the blacktop this time of year.
The box in my driveway sure put a smile on my face. I really appreciate the warm Florida weather you sent up in that box. It cooled some, but his is the warmest it’s been up here in weeks. The snow has almost all melted (we had almost 12” in a week).
I expect to take a ride on Christmas Day. I’ll probably stay on the interstates but I really have to test this new seat. Just sitting on it in the garage it felt great. My Sweetheart was very pleased with the passenger area comfort. I’m sure you know how important that is!
So thanks again and I hope you and your loved ones have a terrific Holiday Season.

Hi, I recently ordered a mid rider seat for my Honda F6B and I thought I would let you know how happy I am with it. The quality is excellent and the comfort is superb. It arrived on the morning I was due to set off on a trip, I fitted it quick and easy and it was comfortable from the first moment of riding. Yesterday I road over a 1000 kilometres to get home and my butt or back weren't sore at all. Thanks again worth every cent even with the Australian Dollar Exchange not good at the moment. Thanks Again.

To the Ultimate Seats Team,
I have many friends who ride and of those who have one, they all love and swear by their Ultimate Seats. The quality, style and comfort levels are all excellent, but there is more to consider.
In 2014, I purchased a Honda Goldwing F6B. From the beginning, the plan was to equip it with an Ultimate Seat package. I opted for the King Seat with the passenger and rider backrests.
Everyone that I spoke to at Ultimate Seats about my purchase were very helpful. I also had a chance to meet some of the reps at the 2015 Americade Motorcycle Rally in Lake George, NY. Again, very pleasant and helpful people.
However, the reason for this letter goes beyond what everyone already knows about the quality of the seat. I would like to discuss safety and share a recent experience with you which outcome could have been far worse.
This past July, my girlfriend and I were out for a ride and were stopped at a stop sign. Without any warning, we were struck in the rear by a Ford Fusion. I remember hearing the crushing sounds of the impact and the motorcycle going vertical. Damage to the top surfaces of the bike would suggest that the F6B probably went almost straight up in the air.
Fortunately, if you can call it that under the circumstances, the motorcycle was hit pretty squarely in the rear and at a speed that allowed us to keep the motorcycle upright once the front tire returned to the pavement.
The damage to the bike was obvious and significant. I believe that there are several factors that helped us walk away from this accident with only minor aches.
What struck me immediately was that we were both held quite securely in our seat and rode out the impact. The backrest brackets showed no signs of damage or bending from the impact. I was very impressed and we were feeling quite blessed.
I will credit my Ultimate Seat as one of the key factors that kept us locked into the motorcycle. If there was a failure in the backrest or had either one of us fallen off of the bike, things would have been far more tragic.
Thank you all at Ultimate Seats for the great work that you do in making a quality and safe product.
Sincerely,
Steve Grenier
