Harley-Davidson Hydra-Glide Revival Two-Up Seats

The Harley Hammock seat combines a broad seating surface and shallow bucket with a fabric suspension sling beneath the rider. H-D explains that the shape distributes weight and reduces pressure points. Beneath two inches of dual-density foam, the integrated sling supports the rider like a hammock; the manufacturer describes two inches of suspension above the seat pan to prevent bottoming out. These are two different construction measurements, not a claim of four inches of seat thickness or suspension travel.

Black vinyl makes the surface straightforward to clean and maintain, with contrast stitching and an embroidered Harley-Davidson logo. Sealing at critical seams helps prevent rain or wash water reaching the foam in those areas. That is targeted water protection, not a statement that the whole seat is waterproof or that every rider will experience the same comfort.

The adjustable rider backrest 52300745 is sold separately. Its contoured pad supports the lower back without pushing the rider forward, according to H-D, and the slim shape leaves room for the passenger. It matches the seat’s black finish and contrast stitching and slips into the receiver built into compatible Hammock seats. Thumbwheels provide fine height and angle adjustment. The backrest product includes the backrest assembly and protective grab-strap pad; it is not included with the seat and does not fit the original-equipment seat.

The two seat versions are chosen by fitment, not as freely interchangeable sizes. 52000746 has a 16-inch rider width and 11.25-inch pillion; 52000747 has a 16.5-inch rider width and 10.75-inch pillion and is the version listed for the relevant Breakout models. The 52000746 listing also requires removal of the original seat rail on applicable FLI models. On a backrest category, the matching product below is the separate backrest, not a complete seat package. Confirm the exact seat reference, bike year and receiver before combining them.

The Sundowner uses a deep bucket shape to support the rider’s lower back, with a dished seating area and generous padding for long journeys. A wider, integrated passenger section spreads the passenger’s weight over a larger area. The film explains the comfort-focused shaping for both people and shows how the seat sits on the motorcycle. Here, touring describes its intended use; these two references are Softail seats.

Sweeping centre stitching and tapered sides keep the profile visually slim around the broader seating areas. Black upholstery, contrasting stitching and a bright Harley-Davidson badge provide the finish. Critical seams are sealed to help protect the foam during rain or washing. The passenger section forms part of the seat, so there is no separate pillion to buy for this configuration.

The two references have different dimensions and applications. Seat 52000748 has a 15.25-inch rider section and 10-inch passenger section; it fits the listed 2018-on FLDE, FLHC, FLHCS, FLSL, FXBB, FXBBS and FXST models, plus 2024-on FLI with the original seat rail removed. Seat 52000749 has a 15-inch rider section and 12.25-inch passenger section for the listed 2018-on FLSB, FXLR, FXLRS, FXLRST and FXRST models. Choose by the exact model and year as well as the seating dimensions.
