Damn, that seats expensive.

 

awwww. it won't fit my FatBoy.... guess I'll have to keep my "FREE" Standard take-off......

 

I had not seen that seat before but it does look interesting. The passenger pillion seems high so it may affect handling with two up riding more than the Mustang.
Let us know if you buy one and what your opinion is.

 

That sure is a nice lookin' seat. It looks like they put passenger grab rails on it. Deep bucket and backrest would make for a nice long distance ride. But the price tag seems a little high.

 

I saw it in the new catalog. First impressions are that it's ugly. Passenger pillion looks too high and the way the studs curve looks kind of weird to me. Maybe I would like it better if I saw it up close on a bike.??.

That passenger pillion is probably very comfortable. Not only thick, it's 14" wide. Compared to the stock 11.5 width, I suspect this would present some issues with opening the side bags but I'm not sure.

 

Not for me. It's a one piece seat. All of nothing.

 

I can get this seat for 420 tomorrow .The dealer has 20% off on all but bikes.

 

Looks like it has a ton of back support. A rider fits deep into the seat, plus a backrest. If it's soft enough it should be a good seller if folks can get by the price.

 

It's looks like the MoCo discontinued the other backrest seat they made for the Heritage (#51562). I thought that looked alot better.

I'm definitely sold on the benefits of the backrest. For now I'm content with using my solo tour pak. It was a life safer on my 2600 mile trip last month. Can only imagine the pain I would've been in w/o it.

Most but not everyone is a fan of mustang seats. I like the fact that it's a two part seat unlike the HD models which have an integrate pillion.
