Looking for a comfortable Softail Seat

[omega1]

I am in the same predicament as the OP.

Has anyone tried the Harley Signature series seat which includes the rider backrest?

I got the mustang royal for my Fatboy. The wife loves it I hate it. Moved me forward a ton and is hard.  I had my stock seat modified with a gel pad. I love it and wife has to tough it out.  Mustang collecting dust in basement.

6 shooter Mustang used to have  a return / exchange program if you bought the set directly from them. I heard rumor Mustang is now owned by some conglomerate. Anyone know ? 

According to their website, any returns are subject to a restocking fee.....20%


6 shooter , under the Mustang website support tab , returns tab you have 10 days to return a seat and exchange for a similar or greater value seat without being subject to 20% restocking fee. I`m not sure about shipping charges. If you attend some bike events and find a Mustang seat you like on a softtail talk to the owner, they will probably allow you to set on the bike.

That's at least $40 per test.

3-4 months after purchasing my 04 Fatboy replaced the stock seat with a cinderblock brick probably 5 times more comfortable than the stock seat
Then purchased a Mustang  500-600 mile days no pain no problem

I believe it has to do where you plant your feet also.
6'2'', 215lbs, 2005 Fatboy & built custom forward controls that clear front fender 3/4" (could use them another 1.5" forward), stock seat & stock bars & 800 mi. days easy!

Check out C&C. Great seat, great company to work with.

They will make just about any seat you desire and deliver it within one week

One problem with Mustang....On many new models they eliminated the standard solo seat and only make WIDE solo seats....Ok if yo have a big ass, but too wide for the rest of us. I had a standard size solo on my old softail. My son ordered a solo for his Dyna not realizing it was wide..It made the bike look like a John Deer.

I have a 2004 softail standard

I hated the stock seat. It was too soft and but ache would occur in a short time.

I purchased the HD fatboy sundowner seat.

Firm and very comfortable
Have had now for years and it is still great.

That's my advice and I am sitting on it!

Well, I ended up going with a Mustang Vintage Solo. Model 75750...I figured if I didn't like it then I could always sell it without much loss.

After a week of riding 20 miles to work and back, I like it. It is softer than the previous seat. Definitely let's me settle into it and stay put better. When I hit a hard bump, I can feel the seat soak up some of the hit as well as some vibrations. It's only been a week, but I'm very happy. Can't wait to see how it does on a longer ride.

I thought my old seat was stock. But when I pulled it I saw a Corbin-Gentry tag calling it a "butt bucket". If anyone wants it, just let me know. It looks good, but is too hard for my @$$ and back.
