Hi-Flite seats have been the best in the business for as long as I can remember. I've used numerous ones with only great things to say. The covers have nice heavy duty stitching and the foam is never ill fitting. Its great that this oldschool company has stuck with making great seat kits for our vintage bikes for so long.

I have one on my 85R that I put on back in the mid 90's and its held up well. I had Mrs. Most make one for my T3 and its even nicer. I would go with one from her.

I have Hi-Flite seats for my 350x and my 185s and there is another one coming with the Nicholson 185s as well. Nice seats.

I have one of their desert seats on my 350x with a custom Cosmic Quads cover. Love it. My 350x is the most comfortable trike I've ever ridden, thanks in big part to that.

Never been a fan of Hi-Flite 250r desert seats though. Something about the shape just doesn't work for me.

Talk to Mrs. Mosh, my T3 "Monster" seat was under $100 and its all hand made and stitched. Mine was all gripper with some green stitching and the "M" on the top.
