Default Mustang or Corbin seat?

I am looking into getting a new solo seat for the Bob. I am looking for a low sitting seat that will be comfortable on long rides.

Which compnay makes a better seat? Corbin, Mustang, or Harley?

Thanks

I have the stock solo and put over 10,000 on it last year up north. Started this year out and got it in my head that a lil softer might be nice. I have had no problems with the stock and rode horses for years so it wasn't an issue. Corbin drops ya back 2".....**** my legs wouldn't reach my highway pegs! I'm 5'8". What's up with the mustang??? Thanks, MAKO

I like the look of the Corbin Hollywood solo. It makes the bike flow a little better than the stock seat.

Can I ask why you are selling the Mustang seat? Did it look bad? Feel bad? Smell bad?

Just curious.

You can get the Corbin seats in a "close" model, puts closer to the front.

Personal Choice, I like to sit down in the bike as much as I can, The mustang seat sits higher. Also when I measured formy ape hangerChoice 12.5, 14's or 16's I liked the feel of the 12.5's with the Corbinseat.. The Mustang or the stock seat I would have used 16's. Also the corbin is very Narrow in the front so my legs arnt forced outward,, much more Comfortable. The mustang is wider.... I have a C & C Also on my Older Wide Gide and it's Also very close to the Corbin But I like the way the corbin Latches with the Keyed Lock.Check them Out.. I think LO has one on HisStreet Bob Maybe he can Chip in here... Hope this Helped Trotter
