The Hartco custom, aftermarket seat for the VTX 1300 Retro
and S models is such a drastic improvement over the factory seat that
there is not enough space here to describe all the improvements. When
the driver attempts to sit back into the large part of the factory
seat, the seat begins to angle upward forcing the driver to hold
himself back in the seat and essentially ride on his tail bone and butt
bones. Then, he continually slides forward down to the more narrow part
of the seat that offers no support. The passenger is relegated to a
narrow, humped up, hard pillion pad that could lead to separation or
divorce.
The Hartco custom motorcycle seat for the Honda VTX 1300 is a full sixteen inches of scooped
out, supportive area that cradles the driver's bottom and does not
allow you to slide forward. The passenger's area is a full 14 1/2
inches across and is constructed to their weight so they are not
sitting on a foam designed for a heavier person as is the case with
most seat companies.
This custom motorcycle seat comes with or without a removable and
fully adjustable driver?s backrest and is available with an optional
velour cloth top to control heat and perspiration.
