| Why is it so expensive? |
This is the number one question we get from our customers, and is very understandable if you don’t know about what we do and what we are all about here at Bitchin Seat Company. A standard mass produced seat takes about one hour to make and is only made to fit the average size person (one major reason you will feel uncomfortable). Bitchin Seat Companies custom seats on average take about 10 hours to complete.
First and foremost, our seats are 100% custom and made to each individual. We focus you being the most comfortable and safe while on your bike without having a huge pillow for you to sit on. Rich, the owner, has been in the custom industry for well over 20 years and knows what it takes to make something perfect. He has also highly trained and highly skilled employees that take pride in the products Bitchin Seat Company creates.
What you get from a Bitchin Seat Company custom Rocker seat

When purchasing a motorcycle many people will spend thousands of dollars to upgrade different parts of the bike to make it look better and several people cannot justify the amounts you spend on an aftermarket seat, after all it is only a seat, right? That’s not how we look at it; this is your personal comfort and style. After market wheels and exhaust may look great but you forget about you, the one who is supposed to enjoy the bike you dropped a ton of money on. Our seats will allow you to outlast all your buddies on those long Sunday rides, or make you only want to stop to sleep when you’re doing your cross country rides to Sturgis, Laughlin, Dayton, and more!
A custom seat just in not a seat, it’s your comfort and you deserve it!!!

| Will I still be able to use my old seat (trick seat for passenger)? |
| Yes, of course. If you decide to upgrade to just a solo seat and what to ride a passenger everyone in a while, and opt to not buy the Bitchin Seat Co. pillion pad. Our Custom rocker seat installs onto your bike in a matter of minutes, no drilling no modifications to your bike. Just easily remove our seat (store in a safe place and keep covered) and place your stock seat back on very easy and quick, no hassle. Other than maybe being uncomfortable and wishing you had your custom seat under you??? |
| Will the gap being closed rub on my fender? |
| No, the seat will not rub on the fender. This seat was created by the owner of Bitchin Seats to work with the movement of the bike. The “accordion” seat was made for the custom motorcycle world originally and specifically for the owner of Bitchin Seat Company’s good friend and bike builder Matt Hotch. The Accordion seat has been around for roughly ten years and is very trusted by high end custom bike builders all over the world. Once Harley Davidson released the Rocker, Rich knew he needed to release this seat, knowing that no one else will be able to create a seat that will close the gap, work properly, and be safe with the bike movement. |
| How does the seat work? |
| The custom seat for the Harley Davidson Rocker and Rocker C is called and “accordion seat”. The Seat will completely close the gap of the bike and attach to your bike in two places, to the front of the seat to the gas tank and to the fender by a small strip of Snap Loc Velcro. The same Velcro attachment is used on everyone one our seats. It looks clean, professional and gets the seat the tightest to the bike. This system is very safe and will not cause any damage to the bike. You will not see the Velcro when the seat is attached. The Velcro is very durable and strong, kind of like a Velcro on steroids. |
| How does it ride now that the seat is attached to the fender? |
| We like to compare the ride of your bike with the new custom seat as if you were going from a off road truck to a lowered car. The difference will be that you will need to slow down to go over speed bumps, pot holes, railroad tracks, ect. Other than that you will be extremely comfortable and the handling of the bike will make you feel a huge positive difference. If you would like to firm up your ride and just add to your comfort level, Bitchin Seat Co. highly recommends aftermarket Progressive shocks. Like many Harley Davidson owners, you will want to modify several things on the bike to make it your own and this should be one of the first things along with the seat. We have several customers that cannot believe the difference in the ride and how much of a difference the shocks will make to your riding experience. We have several customer testimonials on this alone and how it will improve your bike. You can purchase Progressive Shocks, which are highly recommended, from Bitchin Seat Company. Visit our store or contact us for more information. |
| How easy is it to install? |
| The installation of Bitchin Seat Companies Rocker seat will take a matter of minutes to install and you will not need to do any modifications to your bike. To uninstall the seat is just as simple. |
| How does the Pillion Passanger Pad work? |
| All pillion pads from Bitchin Seat Company are suction cup pillion pads, like the Velcro attachment for the Solo seat; the pillion pad suctions cups are very durable, safe, and strong. Every pillion pad we have made has suction cups and is very secure to the bike. If your passenger is still uneasy about this idea you can always purchase a sissy bar or back rest from us. |
| How is the ride for the passenger? |
| The ride for the passenger is not as bad as you would think. And actually is very comfortable. The same recommendations that were made for the solo accordion seat go for the pillion pad as well. Slow down for speed bumps, pot holes, railroad tracks, ect. In order to ride a passenger you will need the Fender Support Kit from Bitchin Seat Company. This will reinforce the fender and help support the passenger. The fender supports are very popular for axle block covers and serval customers have purchased the kit for looks alone. You will also need the fender supports in order to have a back rest or sissy bar. The fender supports will Not change your bike to a ridged. |
| How do the fender supports work? |
| Bitchin Seat Companies new fender support kit is very popular is looks alone. It was originally developed by Bitchin seat Company to reinforce the fender to ride a passenger safely but now it has turned into a necessity for axle block covers and a design aspect for the Harley Davidson Rocker and Rocker C |
