Better yet...keep your stock seat, get a Mean City Cycle mod, pay 1/3 the price...

I run a mustang wide touring regal seat. Has the pillow top look. For a guy that's had 3 back surgeries it works pretty well. Probably the thickest softest seat I can buy which is what I wanted and needed.

My Dyna came with a Corbin Gunfighter & Lady 2 up seat and I've been using it the whole 6 years I've owned the bike. Yesterday I purchased and installed a Corbin Hollywood solo slightly used but looks brand new.

Both seats are nice and firm and comfortable. I haven't had a chance to put the solo seat through it's paces yet but like I said, I've been using the Gunfighter 2 up seat for 6 years. I have a bad disc in my lower back and suffer from Sciatica. I can't sit in folding chairs or most lawn chairs for very long without getting up and moving around and I'm able to ride all day without the Sciatic nerve screaming at me. My one complaint about the Gunfighter seat, and the same goes for any 2 up seat, I use mid controls and 2 up seats sit me up toward the gas tank a little further than I like. The solo seat sits me lower and further back just enough to really make the bike feel perfect.

Default Danny Gray Weekday 2-Up Seat

Took off the stock seat as I felt it pushed me too far forward and up. Bought the Danny Gray Weekday 2-Up Seat as it looked like the cheapest way to get me back and down a little.

So far haven't been on more than on it an hour at at time but I like it. I mostly wanted it for daily trips.

I like the stock seat also but it needs a little work so when I get around to it I will have Mean City fix it up for me.

I have a RKC if I want to go on a really long trip.

Most comfortable will mean something different to each individual. The Saddlemen Explorer Road Sofa is the only seat that has worked well for me.

It is made for back support. The rider is as low as on a stock bike, and is as far back, but because of the way it is made, the rider sits more upright; you are a little closer to the handlebars. It still gives the sitting "in" the bike feel and look.

I recently spent a week riding at the TN H.O.G. Rally, and never got tired, sore or anything. It felt better than the Sundowner that I had on a Sport.

I have the Lepra Daytona Sport. First seat I bought and has been working great for years.
