Sold: Bill Mayer Custom Saddles

[maddog5150]

I have a Bill Mayer customer made saddle. Made for a rider ~250lbs with gear. Includes both rider and passenger seats. The passenger seat was made to have a bit of a "bump" in the front to add extra support for the rider, but to be honest I never really used it because I typically had my bike configured to take advantage of the full luggage platform.

The seats are in great shape and completely transform the riding experience. It even supported me (quite literally) on my first Iron Butt ride in 2016 allowing me to ride 1,116 miles in 20 hours.

These seats were made with the OEM seat pans as this was before Mayer started producing his own seat pans. As such, I am looking for a "swap + cash" with someone that has a pair of stock seats.

I live near Chicago, if anyone is local-ish maybe we could arrange a meet-up and swap to avoid shipping on both sides of the transaction.

$275 plus your seats

WHy didn't you say that the only way you were going to sell these seats was to a local guy?
Why didn't you discard any other possible buyers because of that and made it specific, so people like me wouldn't have to chase you around wasting time?
You are displaying some nasty traits.

I was just at BMS, last week. They still don’t make their own seat pans. Since they sell so many seats for BMW GS models they were having replacement pans made just for that model but their supplier got out of it. For the GS, now, I was told they are buying from BMW dealers defective or damaged GS seats.

Thanks for that update. I thought I had seen a couple years ago that they were making their own for Teneres so customers would not have to ship their seats and wait the long turn around.

Honestly, it happens more than you think.

Roughly how many miles/years on the Seats. Thanks

Bought in 2012, guessing 70,000 miles on it. Not used much the past 2 years.
