Seat suggestions please
Hey Folks,
I am looking around for a one piece 2 up seat for my 2008 streetbob. I like the look of something like the Mustang one piece fast back. Any other suggestions?

I know they are expensive, but I put a Corbin solo on my wife's 2009 FXD. All I can say is well worth it, and I would do it all over again, I don't think I would buy anything else. I am not getting paid for this endorsement.

I'm a big fan of my C&C. The Fastback looks pretty slick. I opted for the sport tour for a bit more passenger comfort. Provides great lower back support and very comfy.

I've had the following fastback style seats on my dyna and softail:
C&C fastback - sits you a lot lower and further back.
Lepera Daytona (with and without gel) -sits you lower, and just back a smidge.
Drag specialties seat (think it's called the predator) - this seat just sucks. I didn't like it at all and never even wanted to give it a chance.
Stock fatbob seat
Mustang fastback - seats you in pretty much the same position as stock.
Of all the seats the 2 I liked the best were the stock seat and the mustang fastback.
I loved the lepera the best for looks but after 2-3 hours my *** couldn't take it any longer.
I currently have the mustang on there now and I love it. When I first got it it did sit me up a tad but higher, but after a while it does break in.

I am in the same situation, looking for a two up seat. Anyone have a used Super Glide 2up seat they don't need?

Love my Corbin Dual Tour in my sig pic. I've had several seats on my Dyna, and this one is my favorite. The Mustang Wide Touring seat is a great seat too, but I prefer my Corbin.
I've had several Mustang seats and they are a great seat, but IMO the quality of my Corbin is way better than anything else I've seen or had. Corbin is a firmer seat, but once you ride in one for a while, you will realize that it's actually more supportive and comfortable than a plushy seat.
They are pricey though, but I bought mine barely used off of a forum member.
The Corbin is very well made and very comfortable and supportive...well worth the $.

I recently put a Badlander on my Super Glide, and I love it. It gives me more leg room and I find it quite comfortable. Not sure if its the best idea for passengers however, my girlfriend much prefers the wider rear of stock seat.
