Default Seat identification!

I am looking into a wider seat for the misses on longer rides and shopping cheap.

Craislist listing said they got it off a Street Bob. I wonder if they ment FatBob and don't know the difference...

My girl is on the small side and doesn't complain about the Wideglide seat we are using, but none of our trips have been over 1 hour straight.

I am thinking about picking up a Butty buddy for the longer trips we are planning in the future...it can come apart to shove in the bag when you don't need it.

Just got a Mustang seat from Biker Trends. Cheapest prices I've found for a new seat. It's a vintage one piece, very wide, even the passenger seat. Only complaint was very slow shipping. I ordered it on June 18th, received it today July 6th. Cat# 75735 84-99 softail. $336.00 no tax or shipping charges. So far very comfortable.

picture quality makes it hard to tell, but my guess is that seat is from a fat bob.

IT it is a stock FatBob seat, the misses won't be happy on it for very long rides. My girl started squirming after about an hour or so. Then later in the day the squirming gets more frequent.
