Default Seat input

Been looking at two up seats for my street bob. What seat do you recommend and why? I don't really want a big bulky seat.

I have a stock seat from a 2007 Super Glide Custom on my 2006 Super Glide and am very happy with it. It is the seat in my sig below.

There is a Corbin Stinger available in the classifieds.

My wife was not happy on the back of the bike til I bought the Mustang Ultra touring. I bought the one piece 2 up seat. I think it looks a little bulky on the bike but it sure is comfortable on a long ride and SHE agrees.

Great advice here. Get the seat that keeps the lady happy. Not likely to be the best looking seat, but like the saying goes, if momma isn't happy, no one is. Get a good looking solo for yourself and put it on when you ride alone, but a comfy seat for wifey is a must.

+1 on that. The stock seat on my Wide Glide not only sucked for my wife, it flat out sucked for me as well. I bought the one piece Mustang touring and it's a bulky, but really comfortable. Too old to care about looking cool...
