mustang seat
I have a 2008 fxdc and want a mustang studded seat but am not sure if i should get the touring model or the regular model. Its hard to decide when i dont have any to look at to compare. Any help here from mustang seat users?

RE: mustang seat
I'm very happy with mine.2 up classic. got it from ACM under $250. IMO the wide would be too big looking on the fxdc.

RE: mustang seat
Have the Standard with a pillion, but never use the pillion since my wife will not ride. If you're going to tour, get the driver's back rest. I didn't and wish I had.

RE: mustang seat
I have a Mustand solo...not the biggest size (too big for the bike IMHO) I think I have the 13.5 inch- next to the largest which is plenty wide..and I'm a big guy. Love it and it looks good too..I like the studded look.

RE: mustang seat
I've got the wide vintage solo with backrest.Looking down at it, it sticks out about as far as the outside of the upper shock mount covers. It looks a little bulky and it does sit you up a little taller, but it's very comfortable and as far as I know you can get the backrest only on the wide ones.

RE: mustang seat
Dude, I just installed my 5 mins. ago...... Came in the mail today and I installed as soon as I got home tonight. I went with the vintage wide with rider backrest....... I spent almost a week trying to decide......I finally decided I can always leave the backrest at home if I don't like it, well let me tell ya, I don't thinkit will be left anywhere....... I freaking love my new seat, solo is awesome and super comfortable and backrest is great. I highly reccomend getting it, you definitely won't regret it. I just ordered the passenger wide pillion to go with it. BTW, I got a great deal off of Craigslist but there are a few on e-bay, I'd check both.
