Sundowner v. Hammock

[pettifogger1]

Has anyone actually had both? If so, which one did you like the best? I have a Sundowner on my FLHXXX. It may be my imagination, but it seems to feel different than when I had it on my FLHT. Thinking about trying a Hammock (the new style), but it is fairly expensive. Any input from someone who has actually tried both would really be appreciated.

I have a Hammock on my trike and its good up to 2 hours. After that my butt is uncomportable and wanting a gas stop. After that its good again for 2 more houts. The trouble is for me I like to go about 2.5 hours before looking for gas. I had a Sundowner on my Road King but did not do a lot of long riding on it.

Will do. Might be a couple weeks because he is the First mate on a Tow boat and is on the river for three weeks and home for three weeks. I'll talk to him as soon as I can. I don't have his Email yet.

If you mean the Road Zeppelin, I have one. Best seat I ever owned.

OK, thanks for checking.

Because I don't have to worry about putting my feet down anymore, if I change seats it would be to either a Road Zeppelin, Travelcade road sofa or something simular...height is not an issue anymore, so might as well get a "cushy" a seat as I can afford...but for now the stock seat and a Alaska Sheep Skin works fine....also have a gel pad that I can throw under the sheepskin if needed....
Works for me anyway.
