Default Seat trial.....

The neighbor let me use his Mustang solo seat as a trial and Motherwell luggage rack to see how I liked it. I like the look but Im not nuts about the seat. It is nice and sift and comfy but the back seems kind of drastic and seems to set me up higher, which I dont want. After today I think Im leaning towards the Corbin Hollywood solo seat, but the motherwell rack wont work with the Corbin locking mechanism. That is no big deal though. I can live without the rack. What do yall think?

A lower seat would set it off.

I agree. I have a lot of friends with the Corbin seats. They have been around forever. The lower seat would look better on the style of bike you have. Love those apes.

I agree with the Corbin. The Mustang solo looks like the factory seat on my Heritage...

Go with the corbin, I have had both brands and the corbin is very comfortable, better looking and well made. IMHO
