Is anyone familiar with the Yuill Bros. seat available for America/Speedmaster form British Customs? I am interested but can't find additional information, feedback or pictures anywhere.
It is BC part #BW07-003.

I've wondered about that too but that price tag is too much for me. Looks nice however!

Sean from BC sent me some pictures, but not on a bike. It looks like the quality is top shelf. I may bite the bullet and get one.
MercKing: How do you like you sceptres? I am looking at pipes too, but don't want to wake the neighbors when I leave for work in the morning. The stock pipes however are way too quiet.

Well, I bit the bullet and bought the seat from British-Customs. On their website they refer to it as a Yuill Bros designed seat, but it is made by Saddlemen. Regardless, I am really happy with it. Comfort is greatly improved from the additional padding and lumbar support, and I think it looks great.
One word of caution: It has raised my riding position noticably (2-3 inches I would guess) from the stock seat. I am 5'10" with a 34" inseam and the change is an improvement to me.
Take a look for yourself.

Hi,

Just wondering if you have any comments from the passengers perspective comparing the gunslinger and the Yuill Bros seat.

Thanks,

Steve

Actually Steve, I'm a new rider and have yet to take a passenger, other than my kids on brief rides. My 11 year old daughter says that the new seat is a lot better, but it's not like we went on a poker run or anything.
As far as myself, it's a huge improvement. I would expect the benefit to the oassenger to be even better.
