The British Customs Slammer Seat was designed to give your modern classic a stripped-down, bare-knuckle look while still providing improved ergonomics. We have stripped away any unnecessary elements to expose details like the factory subframe and more of the rear fender that is normally hidden by the bulky stock seat. The Slammer Seat features a medical grade gel insert that disperses the rider's weight evenly, and the seat pan is made from durable, marine-grade fiberglass.
Note: This seat is not designed to work with any grab rails, luggage mounts or any other accessory that may be inhibit installation of the seat on the subframe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What models does this seat fit?
This seat is designed for the liquid cooled Modern Classics including the Street Twin, Street Scrambler (with minor modification), Bonneville T120, Bonneville T100. If you are looking the air cooled version, click here to view all Slammer Seats.
For the Street Scrambler, the release latch has to be relocated to the tail end of the frame like the Street Twin which can easily be done. We've made a guide to assist you in this process. Click here to download the guide.
Q: Is this seat made out of leather?
The Slammers are made of high quality marine grade vinyl to give the seat a leather-like look with less maintenance than leather while enhancing durability.
Q: Is there a break in period?
The seat will typically break in after 30 days or 500 miles of riding.
Q: Can I still use my grab bar with this seat?
This seat is not designed to be installed with the Triumph-specific grab rail although we have seen other aftermarket grab rails/sissy bars being installed with no issues. We recommend checking with that specific manufacturer on compatibility with the Slammer Seat.
Q: Is this seat compatible for a passenger?
Yes! This seat is long enough and horizontal (no awkward dips) to seat 2 people.
Q: Does this seat sit a little higher than stock?
Yes it will sit a little higher than stock because the stock seat has a dip while this seat is a flat bench.

I'm really enjoying the new Slammer seat I purchased for my 2018 Street Scrambler. Each time I ride it gets a little more broken in and has made the bike look so much better from the stock scooped seat that came with the bike. The seat is professionally made and I expect it to last many years.
If you are changing from the stock scooped seat just be aware (especially if you have had months riding on the stock scooped seat) that you will have to make rider adjustments because of the higher position on the bike with the Slammer. I noticed my riding position shifted from a mostly upright riding position to a slightly more forward position on the bars. This was concerning at first and I worried I would need bar risers to compensate. But the more I ride, the more I get use to the different position to the bars.
Still this seat rocks and I feel BC has made a winner with this seat. The more I ride the less I think about pains I use to get with the scooped seat after long ride.

Solid improvement over the stock seat. Easy to install. Diamond stitching looks great and the craftsmanship seems to be top notch. Definitely recommend.

Dig this seat! Comfortable, looks great, good fit ('16 Street Twin). I can ride for hours on the Slammer.
BTW, I was able to install the OEM Triumph grab bar using a couple flat washers as spacers. Tom

The comfort level on this seat is far superior to the stock seat. I prefer the look of it too. It was noticeable on the first 100 yards after installing it. The first stitch closest to the tank wasn't very square and looks weird from the riders point of view otherwise it would be 5 stars.

Andrew, thank you for the review. As these seats on hand-stitched, there can be some variability in the stitch pattern within set tolerances. We are glad that you enjoy the function of the seat and appreciate your candid assessment.
