This has been one of the best videos,of yours,that I’ve watched for sure. I smiled through the entire video. Those who’ve had a soulmate,would understand. Really made me miss my wife though,RIP
Never owned a Saddlemen seat, but lots of people ride and love them. The stitching is on point (green is my favorite color anyways) and the shape really compliments her lines. The grin on your face says it all for the comfort and function of the seat. Great choice!
Meg, this has been one of my favs of your posts! Seeing Michael's giddy expressions were priceless! I put the same seat (w/o the green stitching) on my 2019 HD Street Bob FXBB. It is a HUGE improvement over the stock solo seat. Ride on (in comfort)...
Awesome gift for c-man. That is very generous of you Meg. I really like c-mans bike looks awesome. BTW Meg you looked so beautiful on c-mans bike with you high heels and skirt 😍
Thank you! It wasn’t really a gift from me, Saddlemen worked with us and the extra was covered by a company that Mike and I own together. All of the TH-cam proceeds go into our account for that company to pay for our trips and bike needs.
Pretty nice seat for Cameraman's ride! He looks very pleased with his new seat! Time for a long putt to test it out....... Thank you both for the video & install tutorial, real time is always fun!
I knew there was other 😳subliminal reason I liked your channel. I retired from the Navy as a GMC back in 2007. You guys look like your having fun. Aloha
After this video, I'm looking into this for my Springfield Dark Horse. It looks like it has that lower back support I want, without putting one of those ugly backrests on my seat. Thanks for testing out the passenger part, too! My wife appreciates that you gave a review for passengers, too.
11:08 "I love that tuck and roll" Debbie to Toad in American Graffiti, Toad" You do well come in and you can feel it,,, I mean you can touch it if you want,, I'll let you feel the upholstery."
Yeah that new saddleman seat looks really comfy and cameraman should be happy now. Well done doing the seat in the carpark with the Swiss army knife. Cameraman took off like a rocket 🚀 lol. Luv the lawyer look 😍🔥🤘
I've got a La Pera on my Sportster and its great so far. In time when I upgrade to a Softail, Saddlemen definitely is an option. I've heard so much good stuff about them. Glad that Cameraman is enjoying his new saddle. It makes the bike feel like brand new again.
Old video.. but u know.. its still relevant. Just got a 24 Green breakout.. am going to order the same exact seat, and colors.. like u say, annoying the way we slide back in the seat on heavy throttle..more narrow in the front works too. Thanks for the fun, real video's.
Now thats funny..you and cameraman are old.... I have been riding from age 15 and i will be 69 this sunday 27th. You two are spring chickens..but i love your videos..need to get mine back up and on the road..but i think it would cost as much to restore my 1974 electra glide..as it would to buy a used 1979 FXE. But from watching you two makes me want to get my knees in the breeze again.
I have two Saddlemen seats for my bike, a step up that's on the bike when I am around town (because it looks better) and a Road Sofa with a back rest for long hauls. Both great seats. I like the stitching on his mine is plain black with lattice stitch. Enjoy them..
Man that was awesome to see how pumped you were to put that on and ride it! I have the same seat and tell EVERYONE it's the best... hands down! changes the whole look of you bike, the way your ride, it's just a BA seat! And as always... great camera work!
Meg great content as usual. Tell CameraMan if he wants a "full recline" foot peg to look up the Kuryakyn Swing Wing foot pegs. I have them and you can mount them at any angle and they have 2 positions one open and one closed. In the open position you can put your boots parallel with the road lanes, or 45 degrees with the road lanes, or like I like on the interstate in full cruise control mode I put my boots on top of the wings on the ends and almost lay my boots on their sides at full recline and I am relaxed. The great thing about them is they offer SOOOOO many boot/foot placements because they are so big so after long rides when your legs get tired from a riding position you can easily change your boot position mid ride. Check'em out. I mounted mine at about a little more than a 45 degree angle for maximum reach and stretch but whatever he wants he should be able to mount at that angle.
Maybe that "DON'T TREAD ON ME" on his fender can be redone in green. His footpegs. His grips. All in green. As long as everything is in the same shade of green. Also, tell Cameraman that I appreciate his service. The Sharon Stone impression was nice. But what was really nice was those stiletto heels at the end of those legs walking down the hall! Very professional! Very nice!
Looks great! Looks of old school looks cool! Pipes sissy bar & now the seat, it all adds up to the cool looks of old school. Meg your bike is not far from it, but still looks cool. I guess you’re bike is next. Both of you still RUNNING COOL! Look Cool, Are Cool. Keep RUNNING COOL! Old school looking is Cool. Keep up the good work, Meg you always sound so cool commentating your videos, I’ll keep following the JOURNEY, Meg’s Motorcycle Journey. Ride Safe all of you.
I got this seat too it’s super sleek and looks good! I use it when I ride solo makes the bike look more sleek and nice! I use the road sofa when I ride with a passenger! But it’s to bulky when it’s just myself so I switch back and forth depending if I have a passenger! Really nice though they both are good! But step up is more clean for riding solo!
The wheels through time museum is awesome. Your brain will get motorcycle overload there is so much to see. Sometimes they start a few bike up in the museum. Very cool to watch. While you are riding the dragon it is etiquette to pull/mover over if you are holding others up. I was down there last month and there were tons of cars on it too. Be safe and have fun.
Nice to know cameraman is a Navy vet, aviation even! I was an AT2, aviation electronics technician working on F/A-18F jets. Hope the new seat works out!
Very nice seat. Yep I know how it feels to get old especially after getting out of the military. Body is all banged up. I did get a sundowner from H-D and really love it. Wish I could have afforded a Saddlemen seat. I really love their seats a lot.
Skyline drive and Blue Ridge Parkway are nice too. Very scenic. And most people call that tool a leatherman. It needs green pegs and clutch and brake levers.
Meg, great camera work during the seat install. I'm glad to see that the seat appears to improve cameraman's ride experience. Time will tell. Ride safe.
abh my friend was a abhcs i was asking i was a boiler tech and retired with 20.5 years meg just watching him install the seat and heard his reply thanks
Be a Army Vet. My Army buddies and I would take blue, any other color over GREEN.. We had green uniforms back in the 70's I bought a watch at the P.X. Only to colors on the watch face blue or green ! BLUE for me...💙 Navy guys had blue work uniform. My Navy buddy had blue jean material pants blue shirt too, I think.
i am a huge fan of backrests, as they allow you to control the bike with your body (hips and waist) in curves and turns. (becoming "one with the bike", not just riding it). this saddleman might make him feel "locked in" for more aggressive riding. a lot of stunt guys use saddlemen seats. i absolutely love that low profile helmet of his. he rides hard, and you can tell he is an experienced rider............. but meg is certainly keeping up just fine. she has come a LONG LONG way in a very short period of time as a biker
Aww thank you! We were just saying today that I couldn’t have handled this trip last year but we did the Tail of the Dragon- twice! And I did fine. He is really really happy with how much better his back feels because of the seat position and back support. I’m happy he loves it. Thank you for watching and your continued support!
The Tail of the Dragon is wonderful, but I did enjoy every stretch of blacktop in the area. Great seat , both the Saddleman and the hallway seat. Just being honest, ride loud and proud you two ☮️🕉️
I bet Cameraman wears his new shoes out of the store too... LOL Enjoy The Dragon, it's pretty awesome, you will either be going up a hill, down a hill, or around a curve. Sometimes all at once. The Dragon is pretty slow 25MPH (very technical) if I remember correctly & they enforce that. The other roads out there (Cherohala Skyway, Moonshiner 28 & Blue Ridge Pkwy) have some great sweepers & beautiful views. PS that Skirt/shoes combo looked AMAZING.
LMFAO...... I love it he jumped on that new seat and was gone.... he reminds me of a little boy that got a brand new pair of tennis shoes soon as he puts them on and takes off running lol
@@megsmotorcyclejourney I tried to email u picks of my bike but it was a nogo idk ..love that seat Michael looks good , maybe just do hand grips and pegs
Meg I did the Tail of the Dragon its not bad if you don't go too fast but you do have to watch out for other people that cross the center line and they can come out of nowhere since almost every curve is a blind turn so keep an eye out and ride safe. Also more people ride on the weekend so a mid week ride on the Dragon is better with less traffic.
I am from Charlotte NC, Use to have a house in the mountains in Spuce Pine NC. I figure you all ready have your trip planned out but we use to just get on the Blueridge Parkway and ride. The Parkway is safer than most roads in the mountains because the speedlimit in 45 and their are no commercial trucks allowed. You can travel from one camp ground to another and stay in the centrally located camp ground and take day trips out from you base camp. Ask the locals what is interesting to see along the Parkway, they know best. There are lots of tourist traps and the locals can suggest alternatives. June is the best month for flowers and they change by elevation. I miss those mountains!!!
@@megsmotorcyclejourney Those you care the most about in life. It was a complement. Sorry to confuse you. You are a fine woman ! I hope Michael realizes how lucky he is 🙂 His daughter was sweet also. A Daddy's Girl ! Good on him . 👍 🏍 zoom, zoom !!!
@@jakecrib9971 aww thank you! Mike and I have been close since childhood and we own multiple businesses together. I always want good things for him- plus I know how much his bike means to him. 🙂 We appreciate you watching!!
@@megsmotorcyclejourney Meg, I'm not just sucking up to you when I say, You Are A Wondeful Woman ! Thank you so much for your kind response and for not telling me to mind my own business and go to hell !!! 😆 I am a Jim , but You Dear, are a Gem💎 !
@@megsmotorcyclejourney Saddlemens are good seats. Glad he likes it and glad you got a laugh from my comment. Keep the shiny side up and the dirty side down.!👍
Looks to me like Saddlman makes the best seats with a solid pan .. and the Gel, but Saddlman does not make a seat for my FZ-07 which has two seats.. and is very hard.. I have an Air Hawk Air cushion .. which soaks up rain .. I have to put a plastic bag over it if I park ouside.. Corbin makes 1 seat that will replace both of the FZ-07 seat with one solid seat.. They offer many different leathers and Vinyle too .. They sell seat covers so you can keep your Leather seat covers dry .. Saddlman does make a seat for the MT-09
Cool seat! I agree with C-Man... I usually don't like any contrast colors but that seat looks COOL! Yep,, maybe some green pin striping ,, it will "pop" on that black! Ever thought about green "shadow lights"?
Hi Megan and cameraman.that was a good review .I like the green stitches. I think green valve stem caps would look good .just a touch of class.just a thought.or green license plate bolts skulls etc.or none of that haaa!! I don't have a seat with a back that holds you in place.thats a good idea makes sense.you guys had fun good to see that !!! GOOD video .Rich.
The drivers seat is much thinner(side to side) so you have more control...its more like a sportbike seat and doesnt hug you like a couch....I added a saddlemen to my Roadglide and it improved handling SO MUCH!! I want to add one to my Breakout also at some point.
You guys will love the roads in TN and NC. My son and I road the Dragon a few weeks ago. It was ok but the Cherahola Skyway is a lot more fun to me. But you can’t go wrong in the Smokys. We go up there all the time. Enjoy the trip and stay safe. Dave G.
I own a 2012 Yamaha Raider S 1854cc/113ci cruiser. LOVE IT! But if I bought a Harley it would be a Breakout, RoadKing, or Heritage. I like the ability to take the bags off when not going on long multiday rides. And I would pop the windshield off and keep it off if it had one. Just my style.
I have to say this is very interesting style of your bike... i really like it! Before my softail slim I had dyna with the same seat and I didnt like it. The seat is stiff and seating position is high also brings you more forward. You can upgrade that when you open the seat and punch couple of holes into the foam -les material will soften the seat and brings you lover also.
Looks great and they do feel good at first but I've got a similar step up seat from Lucky Dave's which are made by saddlemen and after 100 miles it might as well be a brick! But definitely give more control for the twisties!
That seat and green look badass🤘. Totally changes the look of the bike. I love my step up seat. When are yall planning your TOTD trip? I plan on dping the same trip this year. It would be cool to run into yall and put some miles down. 🤘
The dragon is a very technical road. It has a lot of very sharp corners , and off camber corners. and really only a sport bikes can take the corners at a fast pace cuz all other bikes scrape bottom going around the corners. Well supermoto and adventure bikes won't scrape either cuz they set up high.. if you take the dragon at a slow pace you will get passed by other fast Riders.🌹🌹🌹👍👍🇺🇸
Hey Meg, you know the Famous Line About us Men: "The Only Difference between a Man and Boy, is his Taste for Good Whiskey and the Price of his Toys" LOL :-)
Perhaps add a green accent from the Navy’s NWU Type III’s “Don’t Tread On Me” flag! There’s green accents from the digital camouflage in the background that’ll closely match his new seat and black lettering and stripes that’ll accent the black from the bike itself.
FYI cameraman same type hardware holds on my seet. Kept losing plastic washers dropping convection bracket under fender. So I put plastic washers on then thin nits on now can take thumb nite off pull seat. Don't have 2 reach under fender never drop any thing. a
Meg: "Are you recording this?"
C-Man: "Nooo!"
All of mankind: "OF COURSE HE'S RECORDING THAT!"
Hahaha. It’s true.
And all of mankind thanks him.

Good suggestions!
The Willie G derby cover black and green by Brock Black designs is the one I’m referring too….
Thank you!
The dragon is the hook it brings you in. The surrounding roads are much more enjoyable. Make sure you don’t skip wheels through time it’s awesome 👍👍

The drivers seat is much thinner(side to side) so you have more control...its more like a sportbike seat and doesnt hug you like a couch....I added a saddlemen to my Roadglide and it improved handling SO MUCH!! I want to add one to my Breakout also at some point.
The moonshiner 28 is an awesome ride. ! 👍👍🇺🇸
I wish we had gotten a chance to do that. Next time.
excuse my ignorance, but which model is this harley ? thank you
It’s Mike’s 2017 Breakout
You guys will love the roads in TN and NC. My son and I road the Dragon a few weeks ago. It was ok but the Cherahola Skyway is a lot more fun to me. But you can’t go wrong in the Smokys. We go up there all the time.
Enjoy the trip and stay safe. Dave G.
It was awesome! We are headed home now.
Hey bro... curious about what helmet your rockin??
It’s a cheap one he picked up at a local show
Cool thanks.....looking fornthe no mushroom look. Love the channel guys!!!!
Green ghost flames....Looks as happy as a duck with a mouthful of junebugs.
Reminds me of showing Mom how fast I could run in new shoes when I was four. I hope you never lose that feeling.
That brought back a memory
I agree! So fun.
I own a 2012 Yamaha Raider S 1854cc/113ci cruiser. LOVE IT! But if I bought a Harley it would be a Breakout, RoadKing, or Heritage. I like the ability to take the bags off when not going on long multiday rides. And I would pop the windshield off and keep it off if it had one. Just my style.
Nice! Thank you for watching!
Camera man is a lucky guy..Has a nice motorcycle and his Biker Girl Mag.. Wow camera man. 🏍️🏍️
You need to come to West Virginia and ride in the Fayetteville (New River Gorge) area.
We have a friend who just got a cabin there so we will be going!!!
Tail of the Dragon was ok, but I thought the Cherahola Skyway was a much better ride. Definitely more scenic.
Have to agree . I've only been there once a long time ago but I liked the Cherahola was much better.
Nice Saddlemen seat , ride safe
Thank you!
Thanks Jack!
He is happy!!
Hey Meg.. . Hope you had a great week.... CAMERAMAN said Money's Green lol.... Cool dude. You guy's are tag team champions......
Aww thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video
Love the back of your boys helmet and rear fender! 🇺🇸 your legs are way to distracting lol
Lol. He likes to speak his mind and I’d never censor him.
As always. Cameraman is the real MVP.
Hahaha. He does his job well.
Congrats to Cameraman on the new seat! I have been eying the same one for my '19 Slim.
Yes! Thank you for watching
That’s sweet seat!
Thank you for your service
I have to say this is very interesting style of your bike... i really like it! Before my softail slim I had dyna with the same seat and I didnt like it. The seat is stiff and seating position is high also brings you more forward. You can upgrade that when you open the seat and punch couple of holes into the foam -les material will soften the seat and brings you lover also.
This is actually Mike’s bike. A video on my new seat (the profiler) comes out this Thursday
Looks great and they do feel good at first but I've got a similar step up seat from Lucky Dave's which are made by saddlemen and after 100 miles it might as well be a brick! But definitely give more control for the twisties!
Hey C-man, SW-2 Alexander here. U.S. NAVY SEABEE'S.
@michaelmichaelmotorcycle1032 says 👋🏻
Congratulations Cameraman. The new seat looks sic AF!!
Agreed!
Need to go to Maggie Valley , Wheels through Time museum.
Check out our video of that!
I’ve got that seat for my Roadglide. I like it a lot
Awesome!
That seat and green look badass🤘. Totally changes the look of the bike. I love my step up seat. When are yall planning your TOTD trip? I plan on dping the same trip this year. It would be cool to run into yall and put some miles down. 🤘
We did it this past week!
Awesome, I can't wait to get out there and check it out.
Love seeing more of Cameraman! Can’t wait to see his new seat😀
You should come take a test ride.
Meg is rockin that skirt... OH LA LA :)
Lol I wear clothes like that when I’m “lawyer Meg”
@@megsmotorcyclejourney Very hot, I like the transformation .
In Tennessee the fine for wearing a fake helmet like that is higher than for not wearing a helmet at all.
yup that was nice NNNIIICCCEEE!
You got my undivided attention☺😁👍👍
Lol thank you!
The dragon is a very technical road. It has a lot of very sharp corners , and off camber corners. and really only a sport bikes can take the corners at a fast pace cuz all other bikes scrape bottom going around the corners. Well supermoto and adventure bikes won't scrape either cuz they set up high.. if you take the dragon at a slow pace you will get passed by other fast Riders.🌹🌹🌹👍👍🇺🇸
Hey Meg, you know the Famous Line About us Men: "The Only Difference between a Man and Boy, is his Taste for Good Whiskey and the Price of his Toys" LOL :-)
True story. Thank you for watching!
Meg, Cameraman made a great choice with getting the seat with the green stitching, it looks bad ass. Cameraman needs leather saddle bags for his Bike.
He doesn’t love them- he thinks they give it the “old man” look. Lol thank you for watching!
@@megsmotorcyclejourney “Old Man” Look LOL!! Your Welcome!!
I dig camera mans shirt and the back of his helmet and oh by the way the seat is pretty cool also.
Appreciate you watching and the feedback.
It would be nice to see the words. Biker Girl Meg..... painted on your windshield or somewhere on your bike Meg.. Just a thought.😁🏍️
I actually just had MMJ painted on the front 😜
How do you like your seat I thinking about getting one for my 2016 breakout
Perhaps add a green accent from the Navy’s NWU Type III’s “Don’t Tread On Me” flag! There’s green accents from the digital camouflage in the background that’ll closely match his new seat and black lettering and stripes that’ll accent the black from the bike itself.
Great suggestion!
FYI cameraman same type hardware holds on my seet. Kept losing plastic washers dropping convection bracket under fender. So I put plastic washers on then thin nits on now can take thumb nite off pull seat. Don't have 2 reach under fender never drop any thing.
a
Sharp lookin seat. Y'all need a 360 camera
