Don't have any of those. What I do have is a Mustang Vintage solo. I can ride all day on it.

I have heard nothing but good things about the sundowner. Check the width though, wouldn't want it to look 'too big' for the bike.

I hate the soft wobbliness and unsuitableness for two up riding of the stock Fat Bob seat, so I ordered a Corbin Dual Tour. I know it's not in the price range you're looking into, but it's the perfect touring seat and an all day seat, a LONG all day seat. If I could recommend only one seat I'd recommend that, I think it would look great on a Street Bob myself.

On the basis of the reviews on this site, I've ordered a Mustang Wide Vintage for a different look and those solo riding days. I predict I'm going to like it a lot.

I just recently bought a Sundowner solo and passenger pillion for my FXDC. I thought this seat combination would look too big on the bike, but after I installed it, I didn't think it looked too big. After installing the seat, I made a three-day, 900-mile round trip ride from my home in Chesapeake, VA to Beckley, WV and the New River National Recreation Area. I rode eight to ten hours each day, and my back and butt never got sore. This seat is excellent for comfort.

here's the sundowner

Here's a Sundowner seat on an '06 Streetbob. It's a great seat- and I'm happy with it as a solo and a 2-up all purpose seat. I also have lower back problems, and I have travelled over 600 miles in a day on this. Jay
