No experience with C&C, but I've got the Mustang Wide Tripper Solo with backrest on my SGS. I absolutely love it. I've ridden from New England to Illinois/Wisconsin with it and it did pretty damn well for a non-touring seat.

I had the Mustang seat on my SGS for a few months, but didn't really care for it. It felt to hard on the ***. I switched it out for a modified stock seat with a Mustang backrest. I had the same style Mustang seat on my Fatboy Lo and thought it felt pretty good, but maybe I didn't know what I was missing then (3 yrs ago).
