Default Wide Glide Seat

I have a Corban seat that my wife hates. Its hard and she wont ride more than 50 miles without stopping. Looking for a low profile seat with some comfort for her. Any suggestions?

Greetings,
I picked up a used Sundowner off Craigslist for my 97 DWG for 140.00.
The stock seat was plush for a while but the Sundowner is much nicer to her and me.
There are nicer seats out there but I can't afford one.

I'm looking to replace the seat on my '04 WG as well. I've done some decent trips on it (all solo), but I'd like something that has the seating position a little further back (2" maybe). I'd also like something w/o as step of a step-up.

Mustang Seat. Rides nice for both.
By the way, I like your front wheel.

I was thinking about a Lepera Silhouette with a Pillion. It looks like it is softer than the Corban. Just not as big. There is always the Gell Pad option too.

I think I'll keep my girlfriend, she loves the passenger portion of my Corbin Dual Tour, and I think that's the best seat I've ever owned as far as quality, looks and comfort.

What year is your bike? Are you interested in selling that seat?
