Might be some truth to this, but i know for myself, some seats are a lot less painful than others, after a long day riding. But like i said earlier, everyone's bottom is different

I bought the HD CVO solo seat. For me, very comfy after many hours in the saddle. I am sure there are others that are just as good and probably cheaper...

I bought a Corbin solo Classic and it put me where it was advertised it would. For the long haul rides of 600+ I add the bead rider seat cover with a towel under it.
Did you try the Mustang Super Solo Vintage or the Solo Vintage? I had both and the solo vintage did what you described, but the super solo did move me down/back.

I'm another fan of the Police Spring Solo Seat. I have one on my 2014 Police Electra glide. Very, very comfortable!

Ride Safe!

No, after the first round with Mustang and then the restocking they wanted to exchange it, I had enough of experimenting. I sold the seat on ebay and went with Corbin. A Mustang rep came on here and responded to a previous post I made a year or so about them and denied that they do that. That only reaffirms how they operate that they are out of touch with daily operations.

No doubt. I just prefer the low, slim, sexy seats and am willing to deal with it.

Default Comfortable Solo seat

For sure everyone's a** and definition of comfort is different. I had a Russell Day Long solo on my 03 Road King and that by far has been my most comfortable seat. When I moved up to an 09 Electra I looked for a cheap solo pan to send to Russell to have another one made to fit the 09 frame but couldn't find any that were 'cheap' so rode up to Ormond Beach and picked up an Ultimate solo which was pretty good but didn't compare to the RDL. I now have a 14 Electra and swapped out the stock for a Hammock and am quite pleased....did an Iron Butt just last year with very little discomfort. But if I get around to it I would definitely go back to a RDL...without question the best long distance seat available...the only drawback is most people find them quite Fugly....but who the hell sees what seat you have when you're sitting on top of it!?!?!?!?

The CVO seat. AKA Low touring solo seat. Love mine. Can go tank to tank. Could not do that on the Mustang vintage solo. Couldn't go a 1/4 tank on the Saddleman Dominator.
